These tabs were acquired by a California dealer in a box of cheap insignia, apparently from a non-collector source.  They have received negative reviews from two notable collectors of high-ranking political insignia, due to a lack of precision with respect to the celluloid embroidery.  Accordingly, they are being offered in "as-is" condition.  Other than those reviews, the materials (cello thread, buckram, velvet, and piping) are all consistent with original materials.  Additionally, NO additional sets of these have been seen in collecting history, based upon my discussions with said collectors (above).  These will make an excellent accompaniment to a political collection, with the possibility that they are real!  Priced accordingly.  Please note: these have NO relationship to the other pair of 1st pattern reproduction gauleiter tabs in the reproduction section ... they came from entirely different sources.
