Original era manufacture. A great looking Bavarian Freikorps arband of thickly woven wool in blue and white. Affixed to the front of the armband is a zinc shield bearing the words "Einwohner Wehr Munchen 1919", and above a miniature MG sharpshooting badge in gilt on a black wool oval. To the left of the zinc shield is a green inkstamp with the Bavarian coat of arms barely discernable due to the coarseness of the weave. There is an old identification label glued into the interior of the armband.
