ZJ3 Fake


Blue Book: ZS3

Description:       This patch appears to be the result from a reworked manufacturing reject. The patch looks like our Blue Book S20 except it has a Black border. The stitch pattern is rough and appears to be of inferior quality. Two examples have been seen in private collections originating outside our area. At this time we believe it probably was a rejected example sold with other rejects by the manufacturer. The purchaser (or manufacturer) at some point put a Black border on a couple of examples and sold them. appears of low quality.

Information on this item was provided by Bruce Kaffenberger, Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

Quantity Known: 2 examples have been observed (Nov 2004)
Characteristics: WHT background; BLK border; BLK lettering; YEL fdl; apx 53x115mm.
