Gordon Williamson Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 Schwerin's Destroyer Badges is also rather nice

Jan Arne S Posted May 25, 2005 Posted May 25, 2005 (edited) Hi Members !Here is an unmarked Destroyer Badge . Could this one have been made by one of the Pforzheim makers . Jan Arne Edited May 25, 2005 by Jan Arne S
JBeltram Posted June 15, 2005 Posted June 15, 2005 (edited) Hello folks,Great badges and the destroyer happens to be one of my favorites. Here is my example by Schwerin Berlin. If I may say it is one of the best gold examples I have seen. This is one badge I would probably never sell.Regards, Jody Edited June 17, 2005 by JBeltram
Peter J Posted June 16, 2005 Posted June 16, 2005 I suppose you guys have realized by know that I'm a sucker for these small beauties . Two more 16mm miniatures with different features.KRPeter
Gordon Williamson Posted June 17, 2005 Author Posted June 17, 2005 Lovely piece Jan Arne. Next to Schwerin, I think the early tombak GWL are the nicest of the Destroyer badges.
Bob Hunter Posted June 17, 2005 Posted June 17, 2005 (edited) Jody, I love your Schwerin destroyer! Beautiful badge, almost makes me seasick. Edited June 18, 2005 by Bob Hunter
Jan Arne S Posted June 18, 2005 Posted June 18, 2005 One more Destroyer , unmarked but beleived to be made by GWL . Any thought on why they make some of their badges without maker amrk ?Jan Arn e
RichardT Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 I always thought that the early Tombac GWL Detroyer Badge was one of the nicest badges ever made, so when I had a chance to pick up another at a show this weekend I couldn't pass it up. Unfortunately, the swastika has been filed down but it's still a beautiful badge and will make a nice companion to my other Tombac GWL.Richard
RichardT Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 Back of GWL Destroyer badges. Unfortunately the pin and hooks are missing from my "good" badge.
Martin W Posted April 8, 2007 Posted April 8, 2007 (edited) Richard,despite the "salty"look they are both very nice badges.I have three nice Schwerins but one of these days i would like to add a GWL to my collection.Nice find.Regards,Martin. Edited April 8, 2007 by mwestley
RichardT Posted April 8, 2007 Posted April 8, 2007 Thanks Martin. The photos are kind of dark and don't do the badges justice. I was really happy with it, all things considered. Don't find many original badges around here these days, just lots of repros being sold as originals and priced as if they were originals.Richard
moszi Posted August 19, 2007 Posted August 19, 2007 Hi just got this badge from reputable dealer some how i'm not sure about it's orginality. What are the opinions on this badge thumb up or down!Cheers moszi
Paul R Posted August 19, 2007 Posted August 19, 2007 I am not a badge man, but it looks great to me. Any ideas as to the maker?
