hi Steve,

My advice: give it a very wide berth! That is not a correct WW2 pattern.

Cheers,

Johan

LOL! who would have thought it, the seller also has an Indian Parachute Regiment amongst the rest of his dross, strangely, that appears to have been discussed on here too recently.

They both seem to share the same taste for lavishly decorated white table cloth.

£149 is an awful lot of money for an obvious fake Indian Parachute Regiment, but, of course, an original is actually worth far more than that, certainly another utter numpty on ebay selling his dross.
