Default Kurland & Grossdeutschland cuff titles

Here are two cuff titles that I may be purchasing. I believe they are original but I would like to hear a final word from more experienced collectors. Both have been cut. Grossdeutschland title is in aluminun thread.
Thanks for any opinions,
Cesar.

Apparently they had been glued to a scrap book or a glass frame for a while, since there is a spot of glue right behind the "G" in the divisional cuff title.

The Kurland title looks 100% OK to me. This is the most common style.

KURLAND good - agree with earlier comment.


Gro゚deutschland is on green backing?? Looks black. If green - may be/probably is ok...but is so badly chopped up, you should get 2/3 off the usual price.

Please tell more on the latter

Scott & Ludwig,

Thanks for the comments. The Grossdeutschland cuff title is on black material. The same source has another one which hasn't been cut - also black but not aluminum embroidered. If I get them, I'll pass them on or trade for items of my interest.
Thanks again,
Cesar.
