Luftwaffe BSW? SBW? Radio Ops/Gunner Badge

[Avitas]

Hello all,

Here is another badge, the Luftwaffe Radio Ops badge. This is marked BSW or SBW, depending on what order you read it in. I know the old BSW logo was upside down of this, and was wondering if this was made by the same company, either late-war or post-war. I have a few with this marking I will post also. The pin and catch have been replaced as they were part of a huge damaged lot. Is it good?

Thanks,

Pat

and the back of the badge, with strange maker mark. Any ideas on this?

THanks,

Pat

Same as the rest. Bad.

Hello Pat,

Not close to a real one I'm afraid. Here's one from my collection, complete with the one and only accepted (that I know of) cloverleaf mark. I've never come across an original BSW badge without this style cloverleaf marking, accept for the fully spelled out maker marked examples.
