New GAB from Detlev

[ADOLPH]

Hi all,
I received this GAB a few days ago and I would like to know your opinions about the maker, and what are all these bubbles on the front / stains at the back? Maybe the birds flu?

Thanks and best regards,
Adolph.

The bubbles and stains are normal reactions of the finish with the zinc material that the badge was manufactured from. This is usually a good indicator of an authentic badge

Hi Adolph,

Without a doubt one of the nicer examples I haven seen lately of this believed to be made by "RK" GAB

Hi Adolph......

......I agree with what Philippe says, with the exception that it is the nicest RK example that I have ever seen. Good score.
