Re: Help with aircraft part
Sadly many fakes along these lines have been produced, both WW2 and WW1. Some have even been folded or rolled to simulate being stored in a soldiers pack/kit
Thats not saying this is a fake but I would not now trust anything like this unless I took it from the hand of the soldier who cut it out. Does it have any letter of provenance with it? |

Re: Help with aircraft part
Only that the soldiers name, unit, and date are written on the back. He states that the vet's widow claims her husband brought it back folded up in his duffelbag. If it is period and not a postwar created souvenir, any ideas one what it could have come from?
