          Did you ever saw such a cape with 2 makers? And, a "39" dated with "TP"???

          best regards

            It's not 39 dated but 43 dated as far as I see (39 could be batch number - the middle numbers is date not the one from far right ). yes I have seen such double maker marked gasplanes ( have one in my collection ).
            Nothing to worry about - original mid war gasplane made of rubberized cloth.

              Can you tell me how they can "blackening" a 1943 dated cascape and stamp it with 1941!? Back to future?

                It wasn't blackened. Simply the ink was stamped badly and that's why isn't too well readable.
                Those rubberized closth gasplanes were issued from 1941 till 1944 ( haven't seen any 1945 dated yet ) so there is no posibility that it was in 1939 ( as you suggested earlier ).
