Bevo cuff titles opinions for a friend.

[STUG III]

A collector friend bought these recently and doesn't really know SS cloth at all. Wants me to post his pictures and get an opinion. He bought them pretty cheap, that was my first 'Red Flag' Thanks guys for the help. Dave.

I thought so. That's why I don't buy this stuff. The fakes are getting to damn good! He's paid next to nothing so, he'll get next to nothing!

Cuff Titles

Reddick reproductions with the exception of the AH, which is also bad.

Hello Dave,
I hope for your friend, that the cuff titles were really cheap - like the other gentlemen said: reproductions!

Regards,
Dagaz

If you do a search on here there are plenty of hints and tips on these machine-woven cufftitles, in fact they are really easy to spot when you do the research.
The immediate give away on standard BeVo types is the reverse of the upper and lower borders, they MUST have a row of ................ NEVER .,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,. if you look at your friend's they will all have the .,.,.,.,.,., feature. On the front of the borders originals have a clear 'sawtooth' edge, the fakes have a smooth border.

Hope this helps, Ian.

Have to agree with what the others have already said about these , bad & the Hitlerjugend cuff was never made in BeVo .
