    USCHA Panzer boards good???

    What do you think about these shoulder boards, there are some things on them, I like:
    - the pink piping material
    - the making of the button holes

    A bit strange looks to me the green backing material.

    What do you think?

        They are white piped for infantry/grenadiers, I can't comment on originality.

          they appear white due to the bright sunlight, where I put it for the pics.
          Inside they look like faded out pink.

            You are correct, the piping seems correct,
            but I have not a warm feeling concerning the shape and the lining of the tongues
            the keyholes are not convincing too..
            I would pass .

              I agree.

                Looks too sloppy made.

                  Personally, I believe that the best return on the faker's investment dollar lies in the shoulder strap. It has got to be the easiest uniform item to replicate convincingly - and is needed more by collectors than just about any other piece to complete a tunic. All a faker needs is some fabrik and a sewing machine. Original boards can be upgraded with fake tress, and fake boards can be upgraded with original tress. Also, feldgrau boards can be dyed black with a magic-marker. If boards don't conform to a standard that I formed 30+ years ago, I don't like them.

                  I don't like these . . .
