Hi Ray,

The printed CO is ok but the embroidered roundel CO is a repro I think.

Cheers,

JB

The embroidered one certainly is not from WWII, at best a more recent pattern.

Thanks for replying. The round one has a thick, almost rubber-like backing glued to it. I have peeled that back a little to show the rear embroidery.

Any thoughts on real/fake/period would be welcomed (basically it is just a pucker round embroidered one I need for my WWII display case)
