Title Fake tropical SS BeVo cap eagle, 1938 pattern
Nationality German/Pakistan?
Period 20th century

This is a modern copy of the classic eagle in rayon produced by BeVo of Wuppertal in 'sand' colour for the Mediterranean theatre. It would have been worn on a sand-coloured schiffchen or possibly on the Afrika Korps kepi. Perhaps one of the rarest of the SS cap eagles, for obvious reasons mostly found on sliced up pieces of roll like this.

It measures just over 5.5cm across, wing tip to wing tip, and is obviously cut from a roll, possibly looted from a tailor's shop or SS barracks after the war.

testimonials

Thanks very much for the bayonet. I am very happy, I think your photos of your items are great because nothing is hidden and you can clearly see them. (Unlike some other dealers.) Everything was as you describe, I will be keeping a eye on your site for any further bayonets for my collection.

The tipstaff arrived safe this morning, and I am very pleased with it.
