Hello Gentleman,

I just picked up this GWL Air Gunner badge, I thought that some might find it interesting as this is a not often seen piece by this maker in such good condition. Please share your thoughts on the piece. I am very happy to have found it.

Cordially Yours,
JD

Very nice finish on this badge, Joseph. Is this a zinc wreath with the integral hinge and non-cutout swastika? Eagle zinc also?I can't remember ever seeing this badge by this maker before now. Very nice find.

Hello Gentleman,

Thak you for the responses, this was not a piece I was expecting to purchase. I was lookig for a J2 P/O ( kind of another hard find $$$$$) In conversation, the seller said hey look what I just got in, my eyes popped right out as I know these are rare in any form to find by GWL. O.K. , at this point as fellow collectors you knnow what happened next , paid for this one lay-away on the J2 P/O .

@ Robert , for a zincker with this finish , just made it that more rare.

@ Jos, yes indeed the face of the collector god shined on me for a moment, a mear price to pay for such treasures . We can always go to Hawii for our annaversary next year.

@ John, for now anyway, now if i could just have Skip's luck

Best Regards,
JD
