      Not very much to go on, but they look good enough to me.

        I'm skeptical from those photos ..... Clear photos of the reverse would be nice
        Cheers Steve

          I don't like them at all ...
          It seems to be still pieces of the white "stiffener" used
          to reinforce the embroidery in modern-semi modern constructions ?
          The back side shows us also this type of embroidery i don't like either , not flat
          but with some kind of peak ?

                How about this?

                Here's the best I could get holding one down and snapping the photo with my phone.

                    These are about the best I can get with my crappy camera.

                      OK. I'm hoping that these images will get the opinions rolling in again. Thanks to all who have replied to this point. I only have four day left on the inspection period so your help is much appreciated.

                      While these slip-ons seem to look great from the front, I've gotten more negative comments on the back side embroidery and I'd like to get a consensus if that is possible. Right now I've got 2 members clearly liking these. 1 person likes them but feels the photos originally posted were not enough for 100% judgement and 1 does not like them because of the obverse embroidery and what appears as a stiffener down the center. (NOTE: I have also received one opinion outside of this thread not liking the backside embroidery.)

                      What I see with hands-on inspection is repeating pattern of short off-set threads that meet in the center, one from the right and one from the left. The off-set is one thread comes from the right and another from the left just above it. This gives the appearance of a hump in the middle as the pattern repeats and sculpts the letters into the LAH shape. Additionally the black light test is negative too.

                          Thank you Dave.

                          Right now it seems I have a pretty good consensus. I just received another PM from a collector who's opinion we all respect and he likes them as well. .

                            From these new and better photos I think they're a nice original set.
