    Memel Ribbon

    OK, I'm not sure why I can't figure this out, but it is what it is. Maybe one day. I've put in a picture of the front and the back.
    All I know for sure is that it's got the right number of stripes this time!

    Hiya Steve, the edges look fine to me. Have you UV'd it ?

      Hi Ian, thanks for your response. I seem to have misplaced my UV. I'll see if I can find it or replace it, and check it out.

        I've got a new UV light on order, when it gets here next week I'll post some pictures. In the meantime, any other thoughts?

          It looks good to me as well.

              Here's the ribbon under UV light, it didn't react. I put an Afrika ribbon that I know is a repro next to it and the westwall ribbon Ian told me would light up like a Christmas tree next to it for comparison (the westwall lit up like a Christmas tree )

                No worries there (except the Afrika and Westwall ribbons )

                  After speaking with Steve I have to write here what I wrote him.
                  The ribbon posted from Steve is IMO not an original one.
                  I have me too one of this type and they are not good.

                  The big problem with this type is that it is made like the originals, so our knowledge in distinguish good from fakes is not more enough.

                  My books:


                  - THE WEHRPAß & SOLDBUCH OF THE WH
                  - THE SS TK RING
                  - THE ITALIAN-GERMAN MEDAL
                  - THE ANTI PARTISAN BADGE
                  - THE AWARDS OF THE LW

                  and more!

                    Ack, well that's troubling. I've heard back from the seller, he told me that it was made in the Moscow mint in the 70's.
