I would appreciate an opinion on this Afrika Korps cuff title.
It's not my area, but looks to me to be a fake.

thanks

Hi Rich!

I would say it's fake.

The cloth looks wrong, the palm trees are to big and the horizontal stitching on the reverse where it folds over is in two rows, top and bottom, on original examples I've seen.

Cheers

cloth is wrong, the embroidery isn't correct, those god aweful things that are suppose to be trees are no where near right... run away. Matt
