My friend Charles Osborne has a great looking collection of German uniforms. All are quality reproductions.
As he said to me " they look good, I have never been screwed by paying a crazy sum for a fake, that was sold as original, and in 100 years my uniforms will be original ".
You really can not argue with his view on uniforms , or helmets, etc.
Take this example, it looks to be excellent for display, is certainly a bargain, and the average lay person would never know it was not real......
Frankly, given the crazy prices of original pieces, Charlie's idea has much merit.
