    Default Fantasy armband? Ghetto Werkstatten

    Hello,

    I have never seen this armband style before, just other "Ghetto Workstatten" patterns that the general opinion seems to advise being wary of. Anyway, this one seems to be almost unused - another red flag besides the pattern I've never seen. I tried to take some detailed pictures. As it stands now I wouldn't touch this, not without knowledgeable authentication. Let me know what you think.

    Thanks!

    Thanks! I thought so. I had seen the variations with the Star of David/Ghetto Werkstatten but not this. Now everyone else knows if you come across one of these.

    Those flooded the market in late 1990s being sold for over $100-200 on ebay
    Today they are still on ebay for $20

    With regards to any of these Holocaust items, reason must prevail. If you were an individual associated with aiding the Holocasut, you would be a total idiot to keep an item like this for a souvenir of your time tormenting people. If you were a victim, you would want to rid yourself of any Holocaust related item forced on you. I do not trust any of this stuff. For me, it is all fantasy junk.

    Bob's words are indeed sound advice - authentic armband examples and such related to the Konzentrationslagers are incredibly scarce.

    ....old thread. But for what its worth the fonts used are all modern cuts and not 1940s period.
