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

My order arrived this morning, thanks for the prompt delivery.

Two excellent original pieces, I must say.

Buckle is in minty condition retaining so much detail esp plummage on eagle's neck and chest, like to see those 'creases' on the legs also... a beautiful example of an early O&C buckle.

Belt is very interesting, rather thin, CROUPON stamped and also behind the tongue...maybe Allegmeine but no SS markings as you state. Beautiful piece none the less.

Thanks for a speedy transaction Chris, I am very happy with my purchase :)

Thank you. I have received the bayonet. It is indeed in excellent condition and miracle! It fits my antique P53 perfectly.
