Hello,

I agree the female cuff eagle is extremely difficult to find since they were replaced with the larger sleeve eagle and disposed of early in the war. Very nice and clean example.

I will never figure out why they were embroidered so "roughly". Compared to contemporaneous male sleeve eagles these look like really poor quality. Absolutely original, but strangely loosely embroidered. Perhaps the small size had something to do with it.

Regards,
Bill Unland
