        Well,one answer is that there are exceptions to every rule..however that does not change the fact that there are far too many skinny swastika fakes out there, however that is not the only identifier on those repro armbands...

        Some of the width of the swastika might have been lost in the colourisation of the photo shown here......

          The photo shows a distorted armband, wrinkled by the position of the arm. Also, the intense light washes out the darker areas and 'swells' the whites.

          I have little doubt that this is a standard RZM armband.

              Bob I disagree,
              I can't see any Intense Light Refraction Wash or Swell etc: All I see is a crappy armband that looks too skinny...????
