    I have seen some strange things that I knew were real, as the orginal SS recipriant officers showed what they had received as a farwell present from their unit, to include a very unusual dagger all engraved with the officers name. So I wouldn't discount this without some closer looks at what tooling was used to make it, time period wise.

    Is it me or did they spell Leibstandarte wrong ?
    One would think that the SS would spell their own name right.

    The guy who wrote it obviously didn't speak German.

    I'm no expert, but it does look like a fantasy piece to me.

    Schoolboy error on the mis spelling of Leibstandarte , i've seen it happen on the stamps etc of fake SS Documents , for me Richie it put's it into the post war fantasy category i'm afraid

    Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
    Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
    Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
    Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
    We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
    But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
