    Hey Guys, This one is questionable to me because of the side pins. Strange finish wear, but doesn't hurt to ask. Thanks again for all your help! Good

    Hey Guys, I feel like this one might have a chance. The J isnt serif. The prop is straight and back pins look correct. I might be wrong though. Any help

    Hi guys, does this one have a chance or is it a floch/fake. The catch is always something that I look at. These are the only photos available. Thanks

    Good evening to all

    The photos are not good enough but I need an opinion about the helmet. Does it look good or not?

    Thanks,

  • "BeVo" SS cuff titles: how to spot original from fake

    Hi Guys, as this question comes up very often, I thought it would be useful to place a pinned thread on the subject?

    The key to determining an original from a fake, like so many other German items, is the reverse.

    Here is the edge detail of an original. Note the pattern of the weave and how it forms a series of small almost even sized white "dots" right near the edge of the cuff title? This is only seen on originals.

    The chequered black and white weave which forms the back of the title is known to collectors as "salt and pepper" weave.
