            Robert,

            Thanks! It was a whopping $500.00 because everyone thought it was fake.

              Hello Richard P,

              Due to my limited knowledge of SS cloth, what's the story on that strange looking skull and eagle. I would have thought it was a fake also Always looking to learn

              Best regards,
              Richard T

                      My limited collection of cut offs

                      I love to see all these cut offs, they speak to me much more than do mint items. For what it is worth here is my small collection

                          Wonderful pictures of some incredible cut-offs! Here are my cut-offs as they are displayed next to my computer, followed by some close-ups. I agree with others regarding cut-offs, they have an allure that is hard to resist for me. Comments are welcome.

                            First close-up. I believe the skull came from an M43 cap.

                              Me as a German would like to add it is mostly impossible to find such items direclty in Germany. The time before I moved to the US I never heard about such a thing, now I found out the US is the best place to find this stuff. But only got once the chance back in good CA to buy directly some cut-offs from one older lady. Meeting place a family Restaurant and she got a nice box with her, never will forget this moment.
