Worst Observer Corps Armband Fake - Looks like a Sharpe!
 

I know that this "dealer" has been discussed, at length, but I felt that this made me laugh so much that I just had to share it here!

I'm watching this... just out of interest.

What is a "Sharpe"?

Marc

Its a badly spelt "Sharpie"... although other brands of marker pen are available :D

Some of the descriptions are hilarious. British / German SAS snipers mask? A supposed tin model of the Bismark from the 1930`s....The ship was not completed till August 1940 and the main armament has changed from 4 twin turrets to 2 quadruple turrets!!!! Me think he is name dropping as this is closer to one of the pocket battelships! WW2 RAF pilots badge with a queens crown! I especially like `the large lump of coal ideal for SOE fuse display`, `sold as a real piece of coal`........Its a lump of coal with a hole in it!!!!!!!!!! Laugh a minute on these listings!

I like the South Staffordshire Tin Helmet with the famous S.Staffs Fleur de Lys crest on the side!

Very similar to the Manchester Regiment knot :D

P.S. Its totally fake in any case.

regards

I've seen one with 'OC' or 'Observer Corps' hand embroidered in red which I think was right, but a 2 second look at this one was enough to raise a smile! :D
