THE ARMBAND DOES NOT MEET THE CRITERIA FOR ANY KNOWN RZM REGULATIONS. I HAVE NEVER SEEN AN ALL WOOL ARMBAND IN MANY YEARS OF COLLECTING. IT IS NOT SOMETHING I WOULD WANT IN MY COLLECTION.
REGARDS,
BOB

ERICK-
WITH REGARDS TO THE POLITICAL ARMBAND, IT COULD BE A HOME MADE PIECE. I HAVE ENCOUNTERED IN A FEW ISOLATED OCCASIONS ARMBANDS THAT WERE ODD IN CONSTRUCTION BUT PERIOD. HOWEVER, ITEMS LIKE THAT ARE A POOR INVESTMENT IF YOU EVER WISH TO RESELL THEM.

RZM wool armbands have a ribbed rayon roundel and a ribbed tape swastika. The swastika is sewn to the roundel, not through to the wool.

If it is homemade (as many were), was it homemade 70 years ago or 5? I suspect that it is a reproduction because most homemade armbands were made out of cotton.
