Description

German “Deutsche Reichsbahn” Train Eagle by “RHEINMETAL”, Large 27 Inch Size. Great looking eagle that went on a locomotive or passenger car. This eagle measures 27 inches by 13/ 3/4 inches – 68.5 by 35.9 cm. The detail on this eagle is crisp and correct. The eagle has a stress fracture on one wing from when it was removed from the train where it sat and two small holes on the wings from being removed however it is fully structurally intact and strong. These could be repaired by somebody that is adept at such work but the piece looks great as is. The eagle is well marked on the reverse with the markings representing the maker and the metallic content of the piece. I obtained this eagle in the summer of 2020 from the son of the US Veteran who was in the Army in a transport unit and brought it back as a souvenir of WW2 and piece of German War Booty. Excellent and rare! You may want to look up this company on the web as they also made armaments during WW2. (1267bv) LH8474
