Hi DanT;

Most of the people I sell to don't like having their purchases posted.

There was a guy selling these at the max this year..also as repros for under $100.00. They are scary and if he didn't tell me I would have a hard time telling without a real one in hand. He said they were modern made but with all wartime materials.

Really scary one John! Thanks for sharing that with us. Any chance of you being able to post pix of one of the artificially aged birds?

[John Pic]

Tony,I will try, for fakes his stuff is too expensive for me.This was $40 and he would have charged more if he knew the bullion didnt glow but he was in a rush.Im gonna try and age this one up a bit and see what I get.I will post an after picture.I will warn everyone that all his styles were copied from internet posted pictures.Some styles he did not get so we are safe.He had small bullion cap eagle sewn to a piece of original tricot with a seam down the center like it was cut from a cap,aged and very convincing.I also looked at a collar tab that was absolutely correct in every aspect except the bullion was mint.Rune shape twisted piping, real buckram ,of which he has a large roll.I want to reveal more but last time someone told him what I was doing on the GDC forum and he got angry.I want to keep access to seeing this stuff just to know whats going on.I brought a couple forum members over to his booth at the show and showed them so they could see for themselves how scary the game is getting.Hopefully he doesnt access this forum.Ill know soon enough.

John Pic;

I sent you a PM.

[Gary Wood]

Might be an idea to Discuss this in the Association Member forum! as i presume that he also makes non ss items?
cheers,
Gary

[Tony Barto]

Sounds like that's a good idea, Gary. Fortunately, the pix of mine are somewhat blurry so I don't think too much detail is given away.

John, I sent you another PM.
