leigh kitchen Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 The first time I've posted on this section pof the forum I think - so naturally, it's because I want something........I bought this badge 4 or 5 years ago, as a Bulgarian army driver's badge, circa 1920's.Obviously, when it arrived, it had the appearance of just having been made, so my question is, is it a genuine badge & if so frome which era please?

Guest Rick Research Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 That's a racing car from that period, so seems to be for some sort of civilian motor sport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theodor Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 It's a military driver's badge, but IMO this one is shortly postwar. The wartime ones have a crown. Of course, very often the crowns were removed at the end of the war, but this badge does not have even a hole for the crown. So, I think it is shortly postwar. Still this is good, because the badge looks genuine to me. Lots of unfinished ones have been found somewhere years ago and were better or worse finished and flooded the market, but from what I see here, this one looks good.

leigh kitchen Posted June 6, 2009 Author Share Posted June 6, 2009 Thanks, I'd assumed that it was'nt a 1920's badge, but it's good to know that it's at least liable to be genune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
