Excellent lesson, thank you FB.

Thanks. It is actually the height of didactic hair splitting, but the issue took on a currency for me lately, so I herewith spill the beans.
I am sure that there is much folly in the revelation of the subtle details, since all it does is enable the fakers.
When I think back to around 2000 or 2001 when we all got going, the fakes were far more primitive.
The tunic in question was constructed from this photograph which we analyzed here awhile ago. A dead end among many, but an indication of how the so. German surprise package can blow up in one's face.

Some more comparison and contrast.....the cuff title on the stinker with the dorky tag....

Interesting, this is the third uniform I have encountered from this Standarte that is questionable.
All part of the surprise package in the south of said great country.
How do you spell: G a u n e r?
The kick with this stinker is that it was attributed to be the property of a man who was apparently booted out of the SS in wartime. How the fakers lit upon him as the object of their larceny is too subtle for me to discern, but the list of the Ritterkreuztraeger is not especially long, so one goes in search of the mavericks and the misfits. Novel.

I suppose these Gauner of Bavaria have access to documents from Standarte 31 and utilize these to draw in the trusting and unsuspecting. Pfui.
And for further comparison an original Roman " II " - IMO somewhat underappreciated due to the relatively high availability of Arabic numerals .
I assume the odds of it being a 2. Sturmbannstab are higher than für Abschnitt Chemnitz .. ?
