Looks like a good unmarked BSW to me. Has all the typical features I******180;d look for.

Looks like its still got the flimsy ? catch as well. Nice

Would the hinge be one of the clues that this badge was manufactured by BSW. If so, would this type hinge be standard on most BSW Luftwaffe badges. Thanks S Short

Hi Steve,

This is known to be a BSW from maker marked examples.

The hinge on their Glider Pilot is not typical of their other LW badges, which tend to have a very long and thin barrel hinge.
