NSDAP armband and an SS flag - genuine?

[alikat]

I have to ask your help again on these items. The flag looks the most promising to me. I'm not sure about the armband, as I read on one of the threads that printed ones were more suspect. The stitching around the edge looks a little haphazard, but then again I do not profess to be an expert. Pics are poor as taken by them with a phone. I know this doesn't help you!

Also looking for some idea on value please. Armband is for sale at $100 and I don't know yet on the flag.

I have one Party Armband on the next thread - no room for pics.

Let me say im no expert but the flag no good but the arband maybe?

Sorry this flag is a fake from the 1970's. Incorrect and fantasy markings etc.

Cheers, Ade.

I think the 'tell' on most, if not all of these printed cotton repro
flags is the long rope at the bottom end of the bunting.
It should be in the form of a loop, same as the top.

This, and the fact that 60 X90 size flags never existed.....

The flag is a definite fake. The armband appears to be a nice original piece

Thanks again. Is $100 for the armband a little high?

I'm a bit late to read this one, but the armband looks good. The photos could be better. I paid $50 ten years ago for mine so your in the ball park. If you want photos for reference just ask. Do you own a black-Uv light? Greetings Shane.

Thanks Shane,

I decided to pass on these as the general vibe wasn't good. I don't own a black light, but can borrow one when the time comes to buy. I may be in touch late. Thanks, Al.
