Afrika Korps cuff titles opinions.

[Chris Perna]

Hello all. I was just interested in the opinions of these two cuff titles. The Afrika Korps cuff looks good to me, but I am not sure about the brown Afrika campaign cuff. Any info is appreciated.

Although the pictures posted are really washed out. I believe your AFRIKA cuff is a so called Camelhair version so a IMO,

The Afrikakorps needs a better shot without the flash, especially concentrate on the (KO) on the reverse please.

Afrikakorps is a good one, the Afrika has a lot of potential but it needs a nice clear shot of the front but I think they are likely both good. Matt

Thanks Matt. Here is another picture of the Afrika cuff. I will try to get a better one of the Afrikakorps reverse.

The AKCT is a good later style tan one, though not worn during the war. These came out to late to be issued and were found postwar in bundles.
The Afrika ct looks ok but would like a clear reverse photo to be sure....

The Afrika looks good. The AK is an accepted type, but I don't like the very square hole in the O and the way the A & F and the A & K touch. As Tim, said 'found' after the war and never issued. This is the same type as posted in-situ in another thread on a green collared summer tunic.
