MG120 Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 I have a tank destruction strip in gold with packet that I will post pictures of later, at work at the moment. My question is two fold, first, how can I determine wether or not its a pre-45 piece or a 57 piece? Second, could someone point me in the right direction for documentation/research, books etc that may contain what I am seeking.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Original had 3 pins, approxamatly 22mm long.I dont have the cloth strip for it as the tank was a flea-market find in Germany.Kevin in Deva Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MG120 Posted March 8, 2007 Author Share Posted March 8, 2007 Thanks Kev...The one I have has a metal backing plate that the prongs are stuck through, as part of the wool felt has come loose so you can see it. I will keep looking for info.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
