LUFTWAFFE AIR GUNNER BADGE MARKED "B&N L"

SOLD!

Die struck zinc alloy construction badge for Air Gunner, with silver wash. The badge is in the form of a nicely convexed, vertically oval wreath with laurel leaves to the left side and oak-leaves to the right side with a swastika superimposed to the bottom center. Mounted on the wreath is a highly vaunted, stylized eagle in flight. The eagle is secured to the wreath by two small dome headed rivets which are visible on the reverse. The eagles wing tips extend just beyond the outer edge of the wreath.

The badge shows nice quality detailing including a cut-out to the top arm of the swastika.

The finish of the badge is still partially present and well visible. The reverse of the eagle is marked by the maker Berg & Nolte – Ludenscheid (B&N L).

Badge is complete with original hinge, pin and catch and hardware setup perfectly works.

A very nice badge.
