jonightflyer Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 I'm interested to know whether this one is good and who the manufacturer might have been. It is not maker marked.I can't unfortunately show the back as it is already framed as part of a display. Thanks for any info guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ERIC Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 By no means am I an expert, but I can lend you my take - from the pic supplied it appears to be a period Pilot Observer Badge, looks to be buntmetall, by the manufacturer known by many as "The Unknown Maker". None of these badges, so far, have a maker mark applied, but from the hardware found on these examples they are thought to be from the firm FLL - Friedrich Linden Ludenscheid.ERIC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J Temple-West Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 The breast eagle, collar tabs and stunning cape eagle all look fine to me.
