Textbook example of the Handschar Waffen-SS Collar Tab. These were intended for the 23. SS-Frewilligen-Panzergrenadier-Division “Nederland”. This is an unissued, late war piece, in the typical “Dachau” construction as found in the SS storehouse at the Dachau camp when it was liberated by US Army forces in 1945. These are embroidered in silver-gray on a base of typical SS black wool. On the reverse, the textbook Dachau type coarsely woven tan buckram stiffener is visible. There is some glue on the back, as well as the white stitching common to these Dachau tabs.

This one was bought by me, straight from the grandson of a Dutch resistance member who collected ‘souvenirs’ at the end of the war in and around the town of Breda. The lot was acquired by me, straight from the family. A textbook example that was never in a collection before and you would never ever have to doubt the authenticity!
