Description
Product Images
This is a nice example of a late war printed type Wehrmacht (Heer) breast-eagle (Hoheitsabzeichen). In late 1944 or early 1945 a printed version of the breast eagle was introduced in an attempt to conserve time and effort in manufacturing. The printed breast eagles were only issued in limited quantities. The eagle is nicely printed on a fieldgrey linnen background. Scarce original example in good unissued condition!
