    It has the same style of fittings as the one illustrated in Angolia's Vol. 1 from the mid-1970s.

    Thanks in advance.

      Robin,
      This is commonly reffered to as a pillow crimp flak badge due to the hardware set up. It like the PAB that utilizes the same set up is attributed to an unknown maker.

        I agree with Chet. Nice original pillow crimp by an unknown maker. Not an easy badge to find. best wishes,

          Let's try a little forensic work based unpon finish wear. Here is a tank badge from the same maker:

                Hey guys,

                Is the 'pillow crimp' the same maker as the 'oval crimp'?

                    Hi Robert,
                    In reguards to the PAB's the "oval pillow crimp" and the "pillow crimp" are made by two different makers. In both instances the makers remain unknown.

                        Could it be Grossmann & Co?

                        They used a very similar set-up on the IAB.
