Well, a genuine one is about $100.00 or so.

This *Traffic Control duties* armband I think is a repro, due to the sewing.
All the ones I have either seen or owned had the German nice edges sewing, and the thread was the same color, not this contrasting color. My opinion of originality

I like the bevo woven ones myself, which are in the $100.00 to $150.00

I could only find 1 other example on the internet . Here it is . It looks pretty similar . Maybe this one is fake also ? Anyone else ever come across these printed style armbands ?

Hard to tell the thread color on this one .

Hi Craig, nice original traffic control armband,,the stitching is normal,,I have some that are vet bring backs,,so no worries to this one, price is around $125 to $150 on some dealers sites but maybe closer to $100 as the market is slow for now

Regards

Sure this is a Police armband? Traffic Regulation Bns were German Army WW2 units and its members wore an armband like this one.
Marksmilitaria, please, what do you mean by "German nice edges sewing" , bar the contrasting color? It doesn't appear a sloppy job, does it?
Eventually I share your penchant for the BEVo quality.
