I would probably keep the Joe Jax--the factory tag is a nice touch. I agree with others who say that the wavy or somewhat scalloped edges of the Wagner is often a sign that it has been sewn into something else. Still a nice piece.
After this comment I looked closer and you are absolutely correct, Todd. The picture was glued off center and is not miscut. Thanks for the input. I am not really a purist, or a condition sensitive person, so the fact the Wags might have been sewn before doesn't bother me, though I realize it does bother many BF2 collectors. (Yes, Jay, it does seem like there are a few collectors of these ) BTW, who knows what the tag was for?
