    Who's this maker???

    Never seen this maker before. It's on a nice silver IA badge.
    By the way, what do you all think of the badge. Is it original? It is in this grouping that I am pondering on buying. The other IA badge is not marked.
    Sorry for the blurry group shot but I think the back is most important.

      Fritz Zimmermann, Stuttgart.

      Looks like an original IMO.

              Adding shots of the back side of the

              General Assault badge.
              Nice hollow back, however...
              Not sure on this one because of the catch. It's not maker marked.

                Back side of the Silver Wound Badge.
                Maker marked 107.
                How do you like the loops still attached to the badge? This one was cut off the uniform the hard way.

                      Sorry, all I have is the blurry shot of the obverse at this time.

                        Hi

                        IMO the GAB is a reproduction. Shots of the obverse would confirm that, but the catch and especially the bend of the pin around the hinge are telling of a reproduction.

                        The wound badge looks OK, but the IAB also looks odd. The reverse cut out especially, although the hardware looks OK. Obverse shots as Stewey says would be helpful in determining originality for sure.

                          I agree with Tom, wound looks ok so far but IAB is suspect

                          cheers

                            On the IAB there's something wrong with the inside edge of the oak leaves,hardware doesn't seem to match & it may just be me but the reverse seems awfully flat. Stewy
