SS ET Decal

[Eriksavast]

Hi, what are you guys think about this Et?

[FALLSCHIRMJAGER]

Absolutely not! Those borders are wider than most country's have. Leon.

Looks like a repro ET IMO.

ET is abbreviation for Eisenhuttenwerke, Thale. That's the location of the factory ET helmets were made.

Here are two ET decals side by side. On the left is yours, on the right another ET decal.
These are tough to determine for me...

Nick...IMO a fairly decent fake. Whenever I find myself scrutinizing or spending more than a few seconds inspecting an ET SS decal...I walk away. The example on the right is a "one second original". The one on the left just does not have the look I want to see.

But again, just my opinion

Besides the razor straight lines of the Sig runes on the fake, I always look here. The originals are not as sharp where the angle meets.

Takes me a bit of study too and I'm not always sure myself.

Thank you gents. Like I say, I still find these difficult. The Pocher fake is quite accurate, and still stumps me. A lot of fake decals are poor, but some are getting pretty good.
Sharp pictures of the original would of helped too.
