29th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS - collar tabs for review

[Okeke]

Hi again

here is a pair (probably not matched) of SS Italian collar tabs, both on doeskin.
The rank tab shows signs of having been removed from a uniform, but the other doesn't.

Again, "hope springs eternal" and I think they're both good, even if not a true matched pair.
However, I'll let more experienced eyes have a look at them.

With thanks

The aluminium rank pip has well oxidised and is coated in white powder, it certainly shows age.

Can anyone please offer an opinion on these tabs?
Thanks

Hello, personally I am not a fan. The white thread on the backing is very close to the edge of the tab like with the Delta fakes. The buckram weave is also a bit rough for my taste - yes it warps when wet and worn. Let's wait for some more opinions, I am sure they will come.
