Originally posted by kefru177 View PostOutstanding case and clasp. For a clasp collector it does not get any better.
As the Luftwaffe did not make Bronze, Silver or Gold Long Range fighter clasps (told pilots to wear normal day fighter upside down) This is the only way to get a tombac example
I am not sure what you are referring to, the long range day fighter clasp that started this thread is tombak.
You do see some pilots wearing short range fighter clasps upside down though (the one n the post card is a Long Range Day Fighter clasp.

Nice portrait. While you can't prove it belonged to him without better provenance, it is nice to have, at least, an attributed piece. Also there was nothing for him to gain by telling you this after you had bought the piece.
Either way a wonderful piece.
