Three Piece NSDAP Armband – RZM Tag

Product Description: This Three Piece NSDAP Armband is a choice and very desirable example, that is in incredible, mint condition. The overall impression of this armband is of a factory fresh piece, extremely clean, with full, bright original color. The body of the armband is made from a typical red fabric that remains crisp. The center of the front of the armband is adorned with a Nazi swastika emblem made from two pieces of a ribbed fabric, affixed to a separate white fabric roundel which has been neatly machine sewn to the armband with white straight stitching. There is no fading and virtually no age toning to note, and the original color and contrast is fully evident and very eye-catching. The inside of this Three Piece NSDAP Armband retains a perfect original RZM paper tag. The tag is pristine and is marked with the RZM maker code. This beautiful, mint armband shows zero mothing, staining or rips, and shows no sign of having been worn. It would likely be impossible to upgrade.

Historical Description: Nearly every military, civil, political and paramilitary organization in existence during the Third Reich used armbands. Armbands were worn on military and civilian uniforms and also on civilian clothes, from suit jackets to work clothing. They were used to denote membership in organizations, to indicate a specific role or function of the bearer, and as insignia of rank. Many organizations would change the design of their armbands over time, which added to the variety produced. These were manufactured in countless variations, ranging from simple printed bands to elaborately hand-embroidered pieces of the highest quality. Some Nazi armbands were worn by all members of large organizations and were made by the millions. Others were intended for use at a specific time and place and were unique. Many types were made in very limited numbers. Some bore metal insignia or special identifiers that indicated the wearer’s rank, unit affiliation, or nationality. Armbands were sometimes but not always marked with ink stamps by the issuing authorities.
