MAGNIFY

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.
