J. Feix IAB?

[Luciusdegeer]

Gentlemen,

I believe this IAB to be a J. Feix. Am I wrong?




Thanks,
Lucius

Go for it!

I love it and Heubachs version too...

[Luciusdegeer]

Hi Panzercracker,

what do you mean exactly with Heubach? I'm really a uniform and equipment collector, and these badges sometimes confuse me. I really have difficulties to spot the repros. This one I got from a trustworthy seller, though.

Thanks for the info,

Lucius

They had a hollow zinc version with their company name in the same spot as the piece you have (on the reverse). ---Ken

Okay Ken,

thanks for that info! I learn every time I log on to this forum. I love it!

A keeper...

Not common in that format... Nice badge I.M.O. ---Ken

Hi Lucius

Pics are not the best , but looks to be original JFS as you have stated.

The catch has been replaced IMO.

Hi Lucius,

I can only agree with the others, a fine original JFS that is quite uncommon to find. Too bad about the repaired catch, but still a collectable badge due to its rarity.

You've got one of the rarer to find IABs and as allreday said always a keeper ...

[Luciusdegeer]

All thanks to my German friend Jörg Kalks! He still finds the good stuff...
