Naïve fakes.

 

 

 

 

Stamped treasure.



Yep. "Top-secret-squad-of-killers" stamp.
In fact this is Nakata workshop stamp so it is almost "honest replica".

 

M.P subvariation.

 

Time consuming activity.

 

 

"Moth-eaten old pile of..." variation.

 

 

Rare MP variation.

Obviously it's a favorite dish of the moth.

 

"Kwantung Army" variation.

All identically aged.
All bear the same stamp.

関東軍旅順 - Kwantung Army Lüshun
要塞司令部 - Сommandant's office

 

Yep, prectically identical artificial aging.

The best way to sell them is to "add that little bit extra".
Secret map or something ...

Looks like fool's gold route.

 

Gendarme subvariation.

 

"Sewn" variation.

 

Ingenious movie.

 

A professional approach to selling fake armbands: tag + year stamp.
