Authentic Wurster Krimshield?

[RollyD]

Pascal, Frank, or other shield gurus,
Would you mind looking at this one? It is currently being offered on Estand. Unfortunately this is the best /closest picture he could provide. Looks like a Karl Wurster to me, but I am concerned since I cant get some close up pics. I wish I could see the head a little better and I am trying to imagine the lines on the wings (I think they are there..but maybe I just want to believe they are there) The wreath is a little blurry to me, so Im not sure if its detailed. I think its an authentic piece but I am gunshy without detailed pics. What do you think?

P.S. Although I like the shield, I collect WW2 aviation stuff and the cloth is brown (Heer) so I probably wont PM on it anyway and just wait it out for a nice Luft shield. But I still would like your opinion.

Hi Rolly

No need to be gunshy about this one. IMO this is a Wurster made piece jugding from the overall design, low number "4", a bit curved wings and the pronounced pebled area around the island.

Also this shield has an attractive gilding/bronce. Only thing that detracts is that the area around the eagles head suffers from wear to the die or a mistrike.

The featherlines is visible eventhough the picturequality is not the best!

Cheers Thomas
