H.J. Armand w/”Signature” - Help Newbie Please

Hello to all from a first time poster,

Husband acquired this armband in a box of "stuff" which contained mostly US militaria (his interest). I always get to do the research on things of which he knows little. This is one of those. I’ve looked at a number of H.J. threads here, as well as from other Googled sources - enough to know that this is beyond me. :shok_yikes:

Length would be approximately 15" if not sewn; height is 4.25".
Is the armaband even "real"? Also, while I’ve now seen photos of a number of different "variations" (for wont of the correct term) of these armbands, I haven’t seen one with the signature-appearing name on the white portion - a photo shows this. Also shown is the faded portion on the insignia area which seems to have been caused by storage/exposure to sun in the glass specimen box.

Any help is greatly appreciated,
Lynne
