Richard Gordon Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 I haven't see too many of these. I'm sure J T-W has one tucked away somewhere! This one, as you can see is one of the earliest Assmann RO/AG badges (I don't know of any earlier type) but if you know of others please share them here.First up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Gordon Posted August 13, 2008 Author Share Posted August 13, 2008 It's superslim, just like the early Junckers. The detailing to the eagle is superb and so, so similar to the Juncker designs that you have to compare them side by side to see the slight differences. I wonder if the same die cutter made the dies for both companies?It's marked just below the left rivet, not instantly noticeable but here's a close up.Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ERIC Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 That's the earliest version I know about Rich. What a stellar acquisition - you just don't see these at all, at least I don't or I would have one! Congratulations my friend! ERIC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
