Hello,

It appears to be a reproduction to me. Construction, material don't look good imho.

ive never seen one. it was sewn to hat or something. if fake was there originals of this pattern

I agree with Fred that this pieceis a reproduction and does not match anything used in the period.

YUK!
Looks like it was made on a piece of gunny sack material.
