I really appreciate your time BTW, Ron.

whats interesting, is it is meeting those criteria.

the paper is very high quality,thin and with a gloss.no texture and it does have a yellow/light brown color from age. plus like I said it smells old(thats what made me think it was original)

that pic I put up makes it look pinkish , its actually more of a dull orange

staple spread is just 2 1/2"

the contents page is on its own page 2

there are two blank pages in the back

6 1/8 tall X 4 1/4" wide

heres some more pics

My gut is telling me its an original.If its a repro, it was done along time ago and they did one helluva job. but I would not be surprised and it would not be the first time I was wrong. anyone that collects german militaria has seen some very difficult to spot items. I got burned for $600 on a rare luft badge..........that still grinds me!
