I know this PAB is Frank & Reif

[Demianthedog]

I have been searching for the maker of this unmarked PAB and with some assistance from http://www.iiireichcollectibles.com/badge9.htm I believe this to be Frank and Reif. Details like the eye, the gun, pin and catch, the grass and the oak leaves are dead on to my weary old eyes.

Yes, I'm researching for possible sale on estand and would greatly appreciate any feedback. Cash needed for SOS!

The example posted on the website is well worn but this one is virtually mint in detail.

What do you think??

I have absolutely no self confidence, what do you think?

Yes, that is an F&R type pab.

A crisp one at that. If this is the one you're parting with, it'd be interesting to see the one you're keeping. Looks like it'd be hard to top.

Hi guys,

Yep, a nice F&R. These are a very common type of PAB.

They are in silver Tom but not so easy to find in bronze, especially in this condition...just my two cents.
