Guest Rick Research Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 More effective with posted illustrations-- since the eBay pix will be gone any second. :catjava: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leigh kitchen Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 So what is the point of "stripping" the tress in particular? Other than messing up a pair of shoulder straps what's gained by doing that, or were they put togethers in the first place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bob wirtz Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Tress was bad, and mixed (Army/Waffen-SS and Luftwaffe) and badly applied. Auction junk. Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev in Deva Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 (edited) If you think thats bad, look what somebody is trying to flog as an original postcard from WW2 on a Romanian site:- http://gmic.co.uk/uploads/monthly_08_2009/post-950-12509590963.jpghttp://gmic.co.uk/uploads/monthly_08_2009/post-950-125095912911.jpg for 150.00 RON = 35,51 Euros. If I am not mistaken the picture is taken from a website of computer generated WW2 uniforms all using the same face and used to be on the Digger-History Website a couple of years ago. Found the link:- http://www.diggerhistory.info/pages-uniforms/all-forces.htm Kevin in Deva. :beer: Edited August 22, 2009 by Kev in Deva Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
