I don't doubt that it is real. The fountain pen writing was the first thing I noticed.
Watching classic WW II movies this last week and seeing Richard Burton pull a ball point pen out of his pocket and write a name in his notebook brought a smile to my face.
To my way of thinking, bringback papers are only useful if you're making a display or a diorama. It's another accessory, like cartridges or a cleaning rod. It looks nice, but it doesn't really add any value to the Luger itself.
If these are worth $500, then maybe I'm wasting my time making long-barrel pistols. I could retire making bringback papers.
