Something about the patch just doesn't seem "right" to me.<br/> The photographs are certainly a nice collection, but whether they are originals or copies I can't tell. Some of them are known ones without the AC-index numbers.<br/> <br/> Without being able to examine all the items it's not worth the risk. <br/> It could be a genuine set of letters and photos, with the patch added for embellishment....... for $70 I'd take a punt, for $700 no way. <br/><br/>Paul Bellamy<br/> <img class='ForumMaxImgWidth' src='/public/Attachments/ForumNew.MainPage/resource1.png' /><br/> |- | '''donaldbyers''' <br/><br/><div class='poster-info'><img src='/public/Attachments/ForumNew.MainPage/donaldbyers.jpg' /></div><br/>10/21/2008 5:57:20 PM | I too have doubt's about the patch. There was another 613th patch on ebay a few months ago but it was felt with moth nibbles on it. This one looks to good. I agree on the $70.00 and not $700.00 bit.<br/> <br/> Don <br/><br/>Sgt.
