It should say Luftkampf instead of “Luftkamf”

[elmer1007]

You are right, i miss spelled it.

Yes but that is no problem. The real problem is that it is misspelled on the cup.

[VtwinVince]

Another ridiculous forgery.

This reminds me of a boxed cup that sold recently on eBay . I think the cup was ok just a shot/toasting cup with the abteilung number on but the guy had obviously tried to sex it up a bit more by putting it in an oversized and poorly painted box with ‘ Dem Sieger im luftkamp’ on the side . Went for silly money ,I pity the buyer when he realises the obvious mistake !

Now that's a painful mistake in the word 'luftkampf'
If you compare the quality of original, engraved imperial items with the work on this goblet… absolutely terrible.
I hope your friend did not pay too much.

Imperial Goblet I just listed on the Table

Listed on the Imperial Militaria Table

No it wasn't much. But he is embarrassed. 😈

That's a nice looking Becher, can you post images of the hallmarks? It appears the recipient is wearing the Air Gunner Badge, is this correct?

True - Meybauer made...

Still waiting on detailed images, or is this one of those 'I'm only on here to sell stuff' posts?

Meybauer made? I was under the impression that Godet produced the early silver ones. Could you please provide the source of your information? This is news to me..

[VtwinVince]

AFAIK Juncker made the award pieces.

The picture is the source of the information - see attached optimized clipping.
He probably bought it for use on his TR-Uniform...
But speaking of "news to me":
Where did you get the "Godet-Story" from? Do you have any - fullsize - WW1 flight badge (or a photo of one) with a makers mark, case or paperwork that can relate it to the Godet firm? Or at least a quote from a book (other than Baldes), a magazine or a forum post?
That would be really interesting!
