Hi Peter,

It looks a very nice example in really wonderful condition.

What have caught my attention is that the few examples I have on my files, including mine, them all have a guideline wraping the sheet metal hinge, while your example seems to have the hinge directly soldered on the reverse without the guideline...

Here is mine for comparison.

Best regards.

Hi Jordi!

No, the "guideline" is there, but it's covered completely by the sheet of the hinge!

Kind regards, Peter

Hi guys,

Peter's must be an earlier example, it doesn't have the developed flaw on the bayonet like Jordi's does.

Hi Peter

A bit of a late reply, but I had to comment on such a beautiful example.
I have been collecting IABs for some time, and never had the chance to aquire a bronze FO.

Yours is stunning indeed.

I am glad Jordi asked his question, it was on my mind also.. Nice badge Jordi too !!

Very hard to find..

Thanks for posting..

all the best
Graeme
