3x Luftwaffe badges

[torstenbel]

Hi guys, I am thinking about buying these three badges as a lot...would I make a wise choice to buy them? Are the pics sufficient to form an opinion? The combined pilot/oberserver badge and the para badge are marked BSW and pilot badge is unmarked...thank you very much for any help and opinions given. Cheers, Torsten.

All three are (known) fakes, Torsten!
Search for pics of the originals corresponding with these makers and you will spot the differences.
The unmarked observer has an "Assmann" design eagle and a "Meybauer" design wreath. Still fake though.

do you know if Tucker has finished his book on Luftwaffe badges as yet or do you know of any other good books on Luftwaffe badges...I will bad about constantly asking you guys to identify my fakes... Cheers, Torsten.

Did you notice how all three badges have a similar type of artificial aging on the surfaces?........Seeing all three together is particularly insightful.
