Those are in spectacular condition , just amazing! I never even see early Deumer items for sale. I had no idea their early badges were so impressive until seeing the ones you've posted.

And welcome ERIC , of course. Good to see to see you here!

Rich,

Thanks!

I had studied for the last half of last year and started buying sometime in March , I believe. However , these and the others are representative of over a decade of collecting various things and rolling over the funds.

As for my goals , I was just buying whatever popped up that looked good. I bought them all from private sources , no dealers , so the matching of the cases and badges was just luck. Once I get some more money , probably in 2006 , I would like to add a high-end piece , perhaps an early GWL or Assmann Pilot Observer.

I'd love to see some of the other members' cased awards.

A better shot of the interior...

This a buntmetal , ball-hinge , too , but the hinge is slightly different from the last. I love the interior cloth on this one , too. I have never seen it in a Luftwaffe Case before.

Another Flak Badge , but with a different style case. This badge is very heavy. These two were also matched , not issued.

I matched these up , too...

A Flak badge , buntmetal , ball-hinge...

Unmarked Assmann...

I love that purple cloth!

Here is a nice , early one...

I matched this case with the badge...
