Siege of Budapest - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Looking into this item: a paper bag found within a supply-pack which was dropped at the "Buda" side of Budapest (parachuted), during the siege of the city at 1944-1945. (According to the seller)
It has a sticker on it with good whishes from the Führer...

Anyone seen anything like this before?

Cheers,

Although I can't imagine anything else that could be easier to fake than something like this...
I've seen original gift-parcels with similar labels, but I've never seen a bag like this before...
did someone find a big stack?
cheers,Glenn

well, the only other info he has, that it "smells really old" - or how we say it here: "smells like WW2"

it's not really an expensive item (8 EU), but I wanted some feedback from you guys...

I realize, that this could be an easy fake, but I had no problems with this seller, so far.

It looks awfully new for being 70 years old paper...

Fabe I don't see any way to judge something like this I am with Glenn on seeing that similar label before but never on a white bag I don't know Wagriff makes a point awafully new looking paper for 70 some years old seems like Bunker Militaria out of Claremore OK had something similar for maybe German Cookies but the paper to it was quite aged. timothy

Thanks for all for the feedback. I'll probably leave this one alone, eventhou' it sounded like an interesting item...

Well, for the price you cant really go wrong, but the paper does look awfully new.

I'd give it a big, wide berth.
