The item is a German A7V Tank “Elfriede” Nameplate Tile accessory, designed for customizing brick-built vehicles.
“Elfriede” Tank Name Printed Tile This is a custom printed grey flat tile (rectangular shape). It features the name “Elfriede” printed in a white, hand-painted style font across the center. The lettering is designed to look like the rough, field-applied identification markings painted by tank crews during the war.
Background: This part is a specific historical detail for the A7V Sturmpanzerwagen, the heavy tank used by the Imperial German Army in World War I. “Elfriede” (Chassis No. 542) holds a significant place in history as the first German A7V tank to be captured by the Allies. It overturned in a sand pit near Villers-Bretonneux in April 1918 and was subsequently recovered by French and British troops for testing and evaluation. This tile allows you to recreate this specific historic tank for a WWI diorama or collection.
