Anybody ever seen a defect Early SS eagle like this?

[DerKerl]

Just got this one from a guy I trust. He told me he put it on W-A estand and nobody bad mouthed it. Doug

I believe you have a very early eagle there quite sought after

Yeah. I was wondering if anyone had seen the defect third feather down difference? Do you guys think that this one looks original? Doug

Judging by the loose thread at the rear i think its quite possible that this has become unravelled rather than a defect, but i think its the real deal

I got this to go with a SS1 EM tab with the RZM tag on it I got from a vet who nailed it to a board years ago. Nice to hear that it is good. Condition is not that big of a deal to me. Originality is. Thanks Doug

I suspect numbered tab will be nice with a hammerhead VT eagle

Anybody got a clue where I can get a pair of early EM boards to go with these? I have some singles to trade. SS Jager captain, SS Inf. sargent, and late SS Inf EM slip on. Maybe there is a striped tunic out there somewhere. Doug
