A little something extra....

I like to scan in the pieces I have in my collection and create on screen vignettes for desktop backgrounds. Hope you like.

Hi Don,

Really sublime RK and AS twins. For sure the Bronze RK is a rare little bugger.

I don't suppose you want me to contribute to this thread

David you also have a nice matching paire but they're not Juncker. We refer to these PAB's as Zimmermann made. The Juncker PAB's share there set-up with these sc Zimmermann's but there obverse design is completely different.

Hello Phillippe and Chet,

Thank you for pointing out the differences between the Zimmermans and the Junckers badges. I had made the assumption based on pin set-ups.

Hi Don,

The wife won't be happy but I'll start scanning them when I get home.

Who know's since the underlying subject is more limited than the IAB thread I once started we even might succeed to get them all in one thread. I'll keep track of what we have and of what we are still missing

Interestigly enough, the portrait photo David posted is Unterofzz Willy Eich assigned to the Stab/16 Pz Division. He was airlifted out of Stalingrad and reassigned to Rome during the rebuiliding of the division. I own his photo legacy comprising 3 different albums from his RAD days, the campaign in France, and finally his experiences in Russia up to and including some nice captioned photos of Stalingrad. He survived the war. I have this particular portrait. Now you can put a name to the face.
