Doug-
I know you did not mean to say that you had not seen it therefore it was a fake. You are far too advanced to say something like that. I recall a collector coming up to me at a gun show and laughing about a fake SA kepi he had seen that was not even the right color. I beat a path to the table and found a NSFK officer kepi in unissued condition for $15. This was in 1965 and nothing had yet to be published on NSFK kepis. It was easy to figure out what it was as the guy had two tables of Lugers and other German guns and this kepi and two NSFK athletic shirts. Around the same time, another guy told me about a fake Luftschutz helmet with SA insignia on it. Another great buy I made as no one had ever seen a NSKK gladiator helmet before. This has happened many times in my years at collecting and I have found some great items that other collectors discarded as fake.

Hi Bob, no worries I knew what you meant ;-) just wanted the context of my comment to be clear to others.
Nice fez Eric!
I did qualify my honest opinion by saying lets see what other say,the reason for my wrong judgement was for the exact items mentioned.
I belive your decal is very close to the one Jim just posted.
