Bernd..... The Arm Band is in Superb Condition & the construction is just about Flawless! What a Great Find to start off 2008!
I've seen Photos of the more common 'similar' Printed Version - but not one of your Example. With such a fine construction, I'd guess that it was of the pre-war / early war time frame of issuance.
Hopefully a Photo will be found and shown. ..... Txs, Dave/dblmed
