Hi

Anyone seen an F&R packet like this one?

I'm afraid mate that this is a fake, what I call a 'scrawl' fake.

To all intents the designation is imitative of lesser seen genuine examples of a designation type/s -of which there are several actually.

So, these fakers have done their homework and been rather clever into the bargain, and fortunately for us they don't actually copy the design exactly, of which they could do very very easily!!! Which is of some consolation.......I suppose.

The scrawl fakes evolve all the time, they get 'better' as they go along to some lesser or greater extent; they're a virus fake with a multiple of guises covering a multitude of awards in fraktur forms as well as latin too.

Dangerous and very clever fakes!

Thanks Marcus, I did have a funny feeling about the textre of the packet, have to remove it from my store now.

Well, if ever you encounter any fakes and would like to make a contribution to the 'Hatton research library' , or even if to borrow it so as to measure, weigh....etc It would be much appreciated matey.

You got it my friend. Strangely enough I found another one of these as of recent on an auction, they must have been recently leaked out again-
