Wow, that is a huge number of fake SS visor insignia shown on those SS hats. I can only imagine how many of the visors are authentic.

Now I understand better why there are so much fakes and weird items after having red the "auction information page".


"This auction comprises a private European collection of Third Reich militaria, mostly consisting of cloth headdress and steel helmets. This collection has been put together over a period of time from private house buys and flea markets (flohmarkt).
We have been requested by the estate of the collector to offer all lots at a start price of £100, all items are sold on a "sold as viewed basis and are not subject to return".

Crap & Tat Auctions

Now and again they will have a gem among a sea of fakes yet they get away with it time after time. Avoid is the best bet

Hi,

ahah, the asking prices are a dead giveaway...

Strange to see so many well known auction houses proposing such obvious fakes and repros... Thies US, C & T...

I'm posting a screenshot of the "auction information page" for the WAF archives.

C & T should have added "no warranty/sans garantie" on ALL the descriptions of the lots...

See You

Vince

[TWS]

Scrolled through the first page and didn't see a single lot that was one-look original, but saw a bunch that were one-look fake.

Did such police hats even exist?
