(H1546) An Italian Factory Worker's Badge. The badge is maker marked to the reverse for a Milan firm and follows more German manufacture than Italian. It consists of a badge with a orange circle with a bar running through the middle and a square and the lettering C.I.S.A.VISCOSA., which was a company based in Rome and continued until the '60's. This company supplied the RSI government with items. There appears to have been a name plate to the top but this has either been removed, or never fitted. This was part of a small collection of WW2 badges that were collected in Europe in 1945 by a British Marine who left them to his brother upon his death. These were in time passed down to the Marines nephew. The British Marine was in the first wave of allied soldiers into Berlin after the Russian withdrawal.
