Afrika Korps cufftitle

[Steve Mezey]

Hi All
I have been offered this Afrika Korps cufftitle to purchase. As I am not versed in the nature of cloth items I entertain all opinions. I have done some searches on this forum and so far I am swaying towards bad. It can easily be returned to the seller so I am not in grave danger. If it is good I plan to keep it.

Thank you to all for their opinions
Steve M.

Hello Steve,

Here a picture of an original and a fake one, so you can compare.
Look especially to the shape of the middle part from the letter 'O', and the nice triangulair shapes of the letters 'A' and compare it with yours. Look also how nice the letters are on a original one. For example, the letter 'K' on your cufftitle is rather sloppy.
Hope this is a bit clear for you?

Hi Steve, you did right to pass on the cuff title shown. It is bad.

With reference to the one you mention on Detlev's update today. I would pass on that one too. I hope that Detlev will not mind me borrowing the image here. I will draw his attention to this thread.

Cheers, Ade.
