So... UU must be some kind of abbreviation of a group containing these different manufacters?

Yes, nothing unusual here. The same situation was with members of The network of the Gablonz Industries…Originally posted by GielComment

W in a circle mark
I recently bought a PAB50, although it has been denounced as a copy on it's own thread, it has the MM W in a circle, any oppinions appreciatedComment

This mystery surrounding this maker mark has since been completely solved by member Basti, and was for Weidmann instead of Wernstein. A 40 year mystery cleaned up by some great and thorough detective work.
Regarding your question on the PAB 50, Weidmann is not a known maker of the # PABs, but please post pics of your badge and we can have a good discussion on it.

Hey brit who u calling a clown, we are now discussing the MM not the badge, and that thread should not have been shut down until, matters were finished up, ,and it should still be open for all oppinions, especially as there was contraversy about the (uu)(W) marksLast edited by Furher; 08-17-2008, 08:56 AM.Comment

Do not bother to post the maker mark if it comes from the badge that you posted in the other thread. I agree with all of the other comments on that thread, that badge is a reproduction. There can be nothing added to that discussion, regardless of what maker mark is on it. Do not waste your time and move on to other examples.

O.K so i made a mistake over the initials, i understood WB to stand for wehrmacht badges, so i thought you might have been interested in seeing the pab50, but now that i am aware, there is a fake ww1 wound badge which i bought, it was posted on a thread for me by a good member, for oppinions, under a thread named,, ww1 wound badge the photo of it is not good, but if you want a closer inspection i can send it
thanks for the pm on the pab50, but i think you guys should respect new collectors who might buy items and not realise even the names of same, not to mention if they are copies, fakes, real, or whatever, this is a huge field, and there is so much to know.

Good advice.
