FLIGHT BADGES
(J274) A very scarce example of a very rare badge being the NSFK 2nd Pattern Flying Badge. The badge which is non magnetic is in very nice condition and appears to be manufactured out of pressed brass. The badge has the usual mark to the reverse of Ges Gesch 22639 to the wing in raised digits as well as the usual horizontal pin set out in the manner of the SA Sports Badge. The badge is just a textbook example of this rare badge and this type can be seen in any of the well known reference books, including Niemanns, Formans, and Littlejohns and matches the size and dimensions shown. GBP £1000.00 (UK Pounds)
|
(J1489) A very nice and so far unidentified Glider Cloth Patch that shows a silver bird within an oakleaf wreath. The patch shows some mothing but is in very nice condition. In the book "NSKK and NSFK", David Littlejohn shows a similar example and says unidentified. Recently acquired from a German house clearance agent, the cross was in amongst a pile of Luftwaffe and NSFK insignia. GBP £75.00 (UK Pounds)
|
(K349) An Early Luftwaffe Honour Goblet being stamped 835 silber with a crown and crescent mark as well as an eagle mark and maker marked Joh Wagner und Sohn. The goblet has had a few knocks and bashes and I feel someone may have attempted to scrub the swastika at some time. But this is still intact and visible. The goblet was preseted on the 31/5/41 to an Oberfeldwebel Johannes Lehmann who was also holder of the German Cross in Gold as well as the iron crosses. He is also listed as being with a KG unit. The goblet also comes in a custom made box that was made post war that says who it was presented to etc. A very nice early quality award. Very few of these were originally made in silver. GBP £3500.00 (UK Pounds)

LUFTWAFFE PILOTS BADGES
Instituted on 26th March 1936,
|
(K952) A Pilot's Badge being an unmarked mid to late war example, the type that many people associate with the firm of Fredrich Linden of Ludenscheid, due mainly to the hook. This type of hook is found on their close combat clasp. The badge is in nice order and is of mid war quality with the silver wreath being a plated zinc version with a zinc eagle riveted to the badge. The hinge and hook appear to be braised on. Very nice quality and condition, a nice example of a mid war unmarked Pilot's Badge. GBP £395.00 (UK Pounds)
|
(K1325) A Nice Early Heavy Nickel Silver Pilots Badge by the maker JMME. The badge follows the design of the Juncker pilots badge showing this firm and Juncker closely co-operated. The eagle is held on by two rivets. These have loosened with the eagle very tiny movement over the years. On the reverse also, there is the name FRIECHMANN scratched into it. Very nice example by on the more scarce makers. GBP £999.00 (UK Pounds)
|
(J272) A Cloth Luftwaffe Combined Pilot/Observers Badge in cotton thread for other ranks. The award was for wear on the service tunic and as such, came in two grades, one for officer's and one for other ranks and NCO's and this is the standard other ranks style. The patch has a moth hole to it but it doesn't affect the overall look of the award. A scarce variation to acquire. The patch at some time has been glued into an album. GBP £125.00 (UK Pounds)
|
(L343) A nice early Pre-war example of a Pilots Observers badge being made of heavy early tombak metal. The badge is in very nice condition with most of the silver finish to the eagle intact. The eagles wings are nicely fretted out and the badge is held onto the wreath by two domed rivets. The tombak gilded wreath appears to have most of it's original finish. Though it is now a dull gold colour. All in all, a scarce badge. GBP £2000.00 (UK Pounds)

LUFTWAFFE OBSERVER BADGES
Instituted on 26th March 1936
|
(H1346) A nice early issue Observer badge fully maker stamped to the reverse P Maybauer, Berlin. The badge appears to use the Juncker style of wreath and is of very nice quality and condition with some age tarnishing to it. The badge was purchased at a local fair just recently from a local man who stated it was removed from a POW. The badge still retains a high proportion of it's frosted and burnished finish although it has now toned.
This was the original write up and we have just recently purchased the badge back again.
GBP £950.00 (UK Pounds)

RADIO OPPERATOR/FLIGHT ENGINENEER BADGES
Instituted on 26th March 1936
|
(J1705) A German Air Gunner's Badge. The badge is well used and worn and is an Early example. It appears to have been removed probably from a crashed Luftwaffe crewman, as the way the badge is bashed in, it looks like it has come into contact with something hard and heavy. Having said this, both the rivets are fine and the badge is well twisted out of shape but still the pin and hinge work. An early quality badge, you just have to admire the workmanship! GBP £350.00 (UK Pounds)
|
(K231) A used and worn Luftwaffe Radio Operator's Badge by the maker JMME & SOHN BERLIN. This mark is stamped into the reverse of the eagle. The reverse also shows a hook repair and that the rivets have been tightened to the badge. The badge has an early eagle on a later style of wreath. Other than the wear and tear, which is only noticeable from the back, the badge is in good condition for a used and worn example. Ideal for anyone that needs a tunic badging up, this item has bags of original character with the "been there, done that" look to it. Not a mint badge, but if only it could talk!! GBP £325.00 (UK Pounds)
|
(K862) A Nice Early Issue Air Gunners Badge by the maker JMME and marked as such to the reverse. The badge is of early quality and construction but the wreath shows high stress crack marks to the surface which denotes the badge has obviously been used and worn and buffeted about over the years. The badge is the early nickel silver style and closely follows the Juncker example. The cracking on the wreath can only really be seen under a glass and makes it sound far worse than it really is. All in all, a scarce example. GBP £550.00 (UK Pounds)
|
(K1132) A very early nickel silver Luftwaffe Radio Operator/Air Gunner's Badge. The badge is of very heavy quality and is nicely riveted. The badge is marked B & NL to the reverse of the eagle and has the lightning bolts fretted out as well as the top part of the swastika. The badge shows the usual wear and tear and the hook is slightly bent over on the reverse of the badge. This item was part of a group of items that were picked up at the end of the war by an RAF Technician who's job it was to evaluate German military aircraft. A near mint example of an early quality badge GBP £550.00 (UK Pounds)

Otherwise in vgc. GBP £250.00 (UK Pounds)
