Thanks in advance!

Basically three different fonts were used Gothic, Latin or Sütterlin style script.
Block letters were also used. Some cuff titles were made in two different types of script, SS-Standarte Germania, SS-Standarte Der Führer
both made in a 1st pattern Gothic, and a 2nd pattern in Latin script.
It was more usual Gothic script in Allgemeine-SS cuff titles than in Waffen-SS, where Latin lettering was widely used.

Mark, what a bunch of nonsense, sorry!LIFETIME GUARANTEE OF ORIGINALITY ON ALL ITEMS, OVER 30 YEARS IN BUSINESS!
Another Internet-Shop for "Fans", not for collectors, sorry.
Screwed up with some historical photos, which were probably also copied somewhere, this whole "store" is one big laughing stock.
