Just registered here as I thought this might be a more focused place to seek information on an item of insignia I posted over at the WAF.
The triangle is on a black badge cloth, is about 102.7mm wide by 53mm high and the embroidery is in gold colored cotton thread (not bullion or celleon) and the rope piping along the edge is tacked down similarly to piping around collar tabs. This thread turns a dull pumpkin orange under UV; other than that, she’s UV dead. The reverse is a pressed paper backing similar to many German made insignia of the time. All in all a rather interesting piece.

I'm hoping you guys might have some insight that you might share with a non-HJ collector. Thanx, Rick C.
