            Why do you think it's bad?

              hello Sepp

              Yes, the VB doc is unfortunately a fake:

              - bad rubber stamp
              - bad signature (should be the one of GdI Bodewin Keitel)
              - bad type of Diploma (in August 42, this is not this type of Diploma pattern which was used)

              Sorry
              Denis

                    Bad scan, but the doc looks much better that the first one

                        Part of his grouping is currently offered by Ratisbons, but the KC doc is bad... The other is a copy, I believe

                          i spoke to Klaus from ratisbons about it and this is what he wrote :

                          Thanks for following up.
                          We are aware that there are two different types existing. One is part of the grouping as an original, the other one as a copy. I assume a faker would have faked the „proper one" with Keitels signatures. I can't see anything wrong on the doc we have for sale.

                            For starters, it's the wrong style document - the Oberbefehlshaber des Heeres format was no longer in use by the Heerespersonalamt at this time. Then the stamp is wrong and the signature is wrong.

                            Here is one I sold a few years ago that shows what a RK VB from Aug '42 should look like.

                              I see 4 stars in the original stamp for example in the Port document.

                              On the Bärenfänger document i see 2 stars !
