U-Boot Maker - Opinions?

[Steve P]

Gents, Can I have some input on the maker of this U-Boot Badge? Please pardon the quality of the pictures - I am far from a photographer! I will try to upload further pics shortly.

Hi looks like a very nice Tombac Juncker, can you post shots of the eagles head as it looks strange but I am sure its just the angle of the pic, all the best

Thanks mate, I think this is a better pic of the Eagles head shown more clearly, again sorry for the ordinary photoraphy. Pic #5

Hi thanks for the extra pics, nice early original that most collectors refer to as Juncker, looks as if it may have taken a knock to the head at some time. All the best

Thanks for this..So am I correct in assuming that this type is referred to as a Juncker belies the fact that Juncker was the maker? Seems self-evident but want to confirm?

Yes thats right, most believe that this style of U-Boat design was made by Juncker most of that thought comes from the reverse hardware, all the best

I had noticed the Juncker-like reverse hardware but wasn't sure on it... appreciate your assistance. Cheers mate.
