UBB.threads Forums Uniform & Accessories SS & SA Uniform Forum EARLY SS CAP SET ..?..

Hey Guys, I just picked these up for a song and was really trying to find out if they are good or not. Both Pieces are unmarked and fairly good condition! PLEASE let me know what you think!



























OK! There you go. Please let me know!

HEY!! C'mon guys! No one willing to help me out here? Where are you Bwanek1? Over 50 views and NO comments? Help!! Good? Bad? or "I don't know"! I know you are out there, I can hear you breathing!!

All I get is red Xs. Maybe thats the problem Try reposting.

Thanks Andy, I will try it again, they come up fine for me.







Did that come up OK?

see what kind of response the typical guy gets who posts here? nothing!!

These insigninas look good to me- sorry the pompous experts haven't given you the respect of a reply even!
No wonder most are jumping ship on this forum

Many, Many Thanks Drbill! I believe they are OK, but you never really know nowadays. I try to ask quetions before I use or try to sell anything. But it seems like everybody wants to wait and THEN Jump you after you do something with these items and treat you like you are some kind of crook. But, I really do appreciate your input. Sorry to ask for another comment, but did the photos come up OK for you? RG88

Most of the time when people do not answer it is because they are not sure enough to post an opinion.

Dave

yes, photos came up fine

I agree with Dave, I think the silence had nothing to do with who you are, but rather the items that you have shown.

These early ones are hard to pin down as to authenticity, as compared with the later ones that have a known number of makers and variations, and easily referenced RZM numbers and markings. The early pattern eagles were used by both SA & SS and exist great number so they have not yet become all that valuable. The skulls exist in a wide variety of materials and designs and were also in use by other organizations. I think those are factors why these early sets have not reached the level of collectability as the later ones.

I think yours are probably real, the eagles head looks a little small, but its probably ok.

I like this forum, it does have some issues, but I would rather hear from people I know and respect their knowledge than from a great multitude of people that I have no idea their level of expertise, and they are responding without any basis of fact. I think some respondents on other forums may not even actually have a collection...

thanks Mr Jerry, perhaps I was a little too harsh, please excuse me- and your points about this forum are good ones that I will take into account
