Pre dating these things, you could see parts from the real wreck, confirmed as genuine in the Imperial War Museum as well as in Canada, America, Australia and other Museums in these places. Most items however are in the hands of private collectors.

I remember seeing parts from this, or faked parts including a post card sent home by a WW1 soldier made from plywood taken from the wreck including the ubiquitous red paint, quite dark in colour when I saw it, not the favoured scarlet beloved of model makers or artists. This was in the Torbay Aircraft Museum in Devon, long since closed, I dont know what happened to its collection of aircraft, Battle of Britain film star replicas or this item. There are reputed to be enough Red Baron relics to build over 10 complete Triplanes, so I have heard, because of the problem with Fakes. This programme will have long been aired by now but does anyone have any news of other fakes or dubious sightings of Red Baron, Richthofen memorabilia? Badersbusco
