Does anyone know who made these badges? It's not marked, the swastika joins the rifle, and riveted catch and hinge. It almost feels like an aluminum material; very light whatever it is, and it has the stamped outline around the edges of the planchet from the die strike. Anyone have an opinion? s/f Robert

Don´t throw away your fake WB´s! Get in touch with me.
I collect them for reference purposes for the benefit of the hobby (for the right "fake" price of course).

For all we know this Box could have come with another badge than the posted one, who knows it might be a replacement badge that is stored in the vets old box...Regards

The box could certainly have been mated to the badge post-manufacture, but it sure had an IAB in it. The folded paper is that badge wrapping paper-type material, and you can clearly see the IAB outline where the badge was wrapped.
I am no IAB badge expert either,but I also thought these were a later issue badge. I dothink they are a neat variation, and other forum members have also posted some great examples of these. Dannie, I appreciate the link, and thanks for the collective comments! s/f Robert
