Outstanding pieces, George

I can only agree, George.
Those are magnificent badges. Personally i like the Assmann best but hey you can't discuss taste and colours.

Thank you for showing George.

Best regards

Very nice George, beauties

The S&L utilizes the exact same wreath that was used on their wartime Para badges. Their dies definately survived the war

Jeez, George, if you keep showing things like this, I might have to start collecting '57 models!

Beautiful!

[George L]

Thanks again!

Leroy, come and jump in as the water's fine! Seriously, these are relatively cheap compared to their TR brothers, and look right at home displayed together!

Wow George.
These are very fine, thanks for showing.

I am in doubt wich I think is the nicest.
I think I will go for the Assmann, but it is a coinflip with the Deumer.

In case that you are also collecting the early variants, I will say that I am aware that Assmann used 2 different wreaths in combination with the round needle hardware.
