B.H. Mayer S-Boat Badge

[Tom Yanacek]

Hello guys,

Yahooo! This badge came in the mail today. I was fortunate to win this one in an auction about a week ago. It is the same badge that was pictured in post #35 of the following thread:

I think it is a rare gem of an S-Boat Badge.

Best regards,
Tom

My bad. I didn't realize those were two ends of the same thread.

Now back to our regularly scheduled program. Great badge!

Thanks, Norm.

The badge is super clean and it looks much better in-hand than in the pictures. And the white spot of corrosion is no more. I took the pictures before I removed the spot.

Best regards,
