Strange Afrika Cufftitle.

[MilitaryAntique]

Hi guys!

I have not seen this type of Afrika cufftitle before, I have sifted through lots of threads on the forum and I haven´t found a match.

I don´t know if this is original or, I am no Afrika cufftitle expert, but this is not what I would call textbook.

FYI: It does not glow under a blacklight.

Any input appriciated.

hmmmm.......

IMO it's a bad fake.

I would pass on it for several reasons. 1, the material its embroidered on is crap. Looks like a chunk of burlap bag. 2, the trees are not very nicely done, typically the palms have nicely defined leaves as on standard German produced ones. 3, AFRIKA is done crappily as well, it just lacks and decent quality embroidery. Believe me I don't mind variations and I have had the honor to own several variations of this sytle cuff but this is not one I would feel comfortable with in my collection. This is simply my opinion.

thanks for the input guys!

Yeah I don´t like it either, it feels totally off, but I haven´t seen this type before, that was why I posted it.

Agree not a standard original
