Original German WWII NSDAP Party BeVo Style Machine Embroidered Insignia Armband

Original Item: Only One Available. This is a lovely original German WWII Mid-War Style National Socialist Party Armband, brought home by a U.S. soldier after the war. The National Socialist German Workers' Party (Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei, abbreviated NSDAP), commonly known in English as the NSDAP Party, was a political party in Germany between 1919 and 1945. It was known as the German Workers' Party (DAP) before the name was changed in 1920.

The party's last leader, Adolf H, was appointed Chancellor of Germany by president Paul von Hindenburg in 1933. AH rapidly established a totalitarian regime known as the Third Reich.

This standard NSDAP Ärmelbinde (Armband) was worn by party members, and was also worn by many service members and other personnel during the war. It is in very good condition, showing light wear and staining from service. It measures approximately 13 1/4" x 4", and is sewn together in the back. Close examination shows that it has two rows of stitching, the original machine stitching, and then another row of hand stitching that reduced the size a bit for a better fit. It is definitely one of the rarer types, with a red band that has the insignia BeVo machine embroidered directly onto the band with white and black thread.
