      Hi guys,I picked up this Unterseebootesbegleitschiff Erwin Wassner cap tally with some others recently.As you can see it is very different to the one shown by Gordon in his thread 'two steps closer'and seems a bit 'glitzy' or bright if you see what I mean.So,is it correct,eg a manufacturers variation,and is it a period piece?Any help will be appreciated,cheers, Paul

      Thanks for the comments guys. I've see one other badge similar to the one on Thomas's site and theres this one that Helmut Weitze has.I really like this badge,the hardware on the back looks similar to that you can find on some Imperial EK1's.

      Guys,whats the general consensus on Imperial U-boat badges made of zinc?.Were they ever made of this material, 30's origin?Anyone got any pic's of one,or are they copies/repros? I've seen one or two on dealers sites and I'm intrigued as to their origin.Thanks for any help on this one, Paul

      Hello guys,I recently aquired this badge.The weight and measurements are pretty much spot on,the only thing that concerns me is that the hardware on the back is non magnetic.Is that correct for this maker?All the best, Paul

      A last try with this one guys, any opinions as to period? Would I be right in saying the only way of telling Kriegsmarine and Bundesmarine pieces is by makers stamps? Cheers Paul

      Thanks for the reply Michel,the vendor stated that the cap and emblem came seperately. They display nicely together though,all the best, Paul

      Guys, this piece is a little tatty but displays well.Is it Kriegsmarine rather then Bundesmarine and if so are there any differences to tell the two apart? Cheers, Paul

      Hello guys,can you take a look at this cap please.The tradition badge was apparently added to the cap at a later date but if I could have some opinions on the originality of both items I would appreciate it, Cheers, Paul
