    Hi Carlos

    It is believed to represent kwm for Karl Wurster

    Looks like it is on a PAB

    best regards

        Wurster also uses a "W" on their badges.. I am sure these two marks were linked in a thread somewhere. Certainly the designs of the badges remain the same through maker mark transitions.

        Might be worth you doing a search and see what you come up with..

        I would, but I am off to get some sleep

        cheers

          that one should look like "K W M" in a circle.

            Hi Carlos,

            I completely agree with Graeme, the mark is connected to Wurster. They indeed used the small "W" on their earlier badges, but seem to have switched to the KWM mark later on in the war with their zinc badges. All of these badges are connected by use of the exact same dies for their PABs

            If it doesn't have a hinge and catch, I'm not interested......well, maybe a little
