    Default SS Arm Eagle and SS Police Patch?

    Hey guys, I have opened up another thread to discuss the tunic these patches are on, but this is really urgent. Last night i managed to get some additional pics from the seller of both the tunic and the patches applied to them and here they are. I was thinking that they both look genuine, would i be correct in saying this?
    Thanks, Glen.

    I don't know the other post and I am no expert on actual SS cloth ..... BUT the method of attachment of these is horrendous and I'm sure no self respecting soldat would be caught dead with such shabby tailoring - a dressing down is the least he would receive!
    And if the stitching is suss, then I'd call the actual patches into question as well I'm afraid.

    Cheers, Dan

    I just answered your other thread. The eagle is the "bowling pin" fake.

    Thanks guys, also the swastika is slightly un-ergonomic and the swastika doesn't fill the wreath.
    Thanks again, Glen.

    Sorry, this is the bowling pin fake.
    I think the one on the tunic is known as the "coke bottle" fake?
    Well, no matter, they are both very ugly!!

    The rune patch is also a reproduction. It also does not make any sense on a SD tunic. The purpose of the rune patch, worn on police tunics, was to indicate a member of the police was also a member of the SS. As a man in the SD was already a member of the SS, why would he wear such a patch on a SS uniform? This is definitely a humped up piece. Genuine untampered with SS uniforms do not show up on auction sites.
