I would very much appreciate opinions on this tab. The runes dont lay back as seen on most..came from a very good source..but we all including myself make mistakes..Thanks in advance.

The cardboard Unterlage is too fat, the strange black wool , the size of buckram is a kind of Railway tabs size. That kind of buckram seen on pumpkin heads collar tabs has been found somewhere and used on a high quality hand and machine embroidered fakes. I had several offers for trade, received to my website- all has same issues and mistakes. Your example has no issue with connected sides located on a piece of paper as shown below, but the shape is too narrow as a Railway tab as I've mentioned. However original examples in this shape of runes exists and photo evidenced- they must be in regular size. Your example is a modern repro. I'am sure the ends on the backing connected with synthetic glue thereLast edited by espenlaub; 12-14-2016, 05:51 AM.Comment
