Hi Mike,
the link leads to a Wikipeda-page, but it's most likely to good to be true anyway

As I recall, Adrian Forman sold that General's original oaks/swords in the 1980s.

Those pictured here are not the same.

Apparantly the good general got screwed.

They are just plain Baaad!

IMO absolutely FAKE. There are a lot of offers at EBAY like Swords, Oaks etc with faked proviency and a native story f.e. "got this piece from the widdow of General XXX ...". My good advice: Don´t use your illusions and see at the good books of Gorden and Stephen before you´ll give your bid for a pice of "S".

I sent the seller an email to "wind' him up...Asking about why the price was so low and whether he has bullet proof provenance..

Anyhow the answer was this:

"Nein, habe ich nicht. Es gibt ja keinen gerichtlich anerkannten Sachverständiger mehr???!!! Klietmann ist leider verstoreben und Nimmergut macht keine Expertisen mehr. Niemann....na ja, sehr zweifelhaft wie ich finde...."

No I dont. Talking about that there are no more Assessor in Germany, Klietmann died, Nimmergut does not do any more and Niemann...very doubtful person..

It is clearly not a pre 1945 piece.

Just a piece of cheap junk! Wasn´t there a L/58-marked set for sale in Norway not so long ago?
