The #'ed tab is nice.

oh, come on, lets talk about the Generals tabs.
Booooooooooooooooooooo!!!!
Roll Eyes
wrong shaped sloppy embroidery to leaves & pips
wrong thick tight piping
wrong backing paper
and the totaly fake RZM tag was not worth the 5 minutes they spent faking it.

I have seen these tabs with the tag & backing removed to try & fool collectors. I think they came out in the 1960's

Does this mean the thick but loose , As opposed to tight(MrJerry) piping on early ss collar tabs is okay? Not that they would have had the same oakleaf as shown of course.

63 tab is a nice original including the rzm tag. It is in itself a nice find Smile

Generals tabs are clearly bad. Nothng like the war time ones. I am sorry.
If you do a search and compare with photos, even the small pics in Angolias SS cloth insignias, you will see the difference.
