First sentence: This essay, one of four describing and contextualizing the faking for profit of Afrikakorps material culture, is intended to provide the student with a tool, which will help separate authentic from fake material, and at the same time demonstrate in a practical and lasting way how our knowledge and understanding of these can be augmented by a contribution from academia, the analytical approach of which should be more systematic, more disciplined and more open than that of the average lay enthusiast.
