Arm Bands: Fake or Real?

Any assistance in determining authenticity is greatly appreciated.

I would advise not to buy it. I bought one almost exactly like it off eBay when I first started collecting and the guy swore up and down it was ww2 so I just bought it for 20USD then when I joined here and posted it guess what it wasn’t WW2 related. And I mean it’s almost exactly like it I’ll have to post a pick to this thread tomorrow to show you.

Just found the old thread lol here is the fake I bought.

Thanks for the advice. Armbands are really tricky sometimes and the scammers get richer. Thank you very much.

For what it's worth I've never seen such a disorderly R.B.Nr string of numbers, they look like they have been individually printed. Surely any manufacturer would have their number code made into a single stamp? That would kill it for me.
