Another "Deumer"

Thanks J, I knew you would have or know of at least one! By the way, what Angolia reference in that pic in? I don't remember seeing that one before.

ERIC

Outstanding 1st pattern Flak insignia JTW!! What an awesome find, manufacturers tags and all. Marc would go GaaGaa over this beaut. Do you have a photo of one in wear? Something tells me you might....

Excellent CEJ, CHE! Here's another 1st pattern for the thread with the full Juncker marking.

ERIC

I have to agree with John and Steve here CHE - definately not an early badge mm by Assmann. The badge itself is an awesome original Deumer 1st Pattern though! I (sorry to say) can't help you out with showing a false marking on an original Deumer, but I have also seen them in collecting circles. The Deumer Observer posted here by JTW is one of those post factory marked examples I have seen before. The earliest form of marking from the Assmann firm that I know about as well is the type shown by John earlier in a side by side comparison to your marking. Here is another example of that style marking.

ERIC

Cheers!!

ERIC

I should be so lucky to have such things "lying about!!" Quality stuff Bob, and nice photography!

ERIC

Love your 3rd Pattern moszi, right down to the classic late war Juncker hinge/catch setup! Lucky dog!

ERIC

Superb example by the Wien firm John! Her finish has held up remarkably well through the years! Congrats!!

ERIC

Thanks guys, appreciate it. Hope you weathered the storm ok JTW! Well Steve, the center leaves appear to meet, but on the upper right part of the wreath there seems to be a leaf missing, hence the appearence of the two halves being mismatched.
