A nice piece of fabric you have there. I have some fabric of a DH10 and the rudder stripes of an Avro 504k.:)

I got a nice piece of fabric too, But not as old as yours,
I recovered it after Boz was involved in a dead landing/ crash with this Jungmann, which I had spent 3 years helping restore from nothing, under supervision of my best mate Paul Childs, he gave me it, it was taken from the wings which were smashed and i have framed it,
Its the german cross from the wing, looks nice framed.
i will try a post a pic of the plane now, Thanks to Flightline for such a wonderful Pic .

GReat I Managed to get a pic on here at last,
I will try a photograph the fabric, and put this on here too,

I would love to know more about your Jenny though, anyway we can find its history,

Interesting relic Darrell! I am sure someone will identify it for you. Are there any markings on the other side at all?
