About this Piece
The skull and crossbones on a black background is the classic insignia of the Allgemeine SS – in contrast to the skull and crossbones on green cotton fabric of the Waffen-SS field uniform. The black skull and crossbones patch was worn on the black SS uniform and is one of the most iconic symbols of SS history. The notice "Ges. Gesch." (Legally Protected) is an integrated manufacturer's trademark protection – an authentic feature of original productions and an important authenticity characteristic for collectors. Original SS skull and crossbones cloth patches in black with manufacturer's trademark protection are very rare on the collector's market. Also available: SS skull and crossbones on green cotton fabric / Waffen-SS (Item No. 21.814) and SS collar tab series (Item Nos. 33.719–33.721).
