Hello, I'm new here. I'd like to have your opinion about these wings.
Thanks for any help,
Gatt

Welcome to the forum
I'm sorry to tell you, that this badge is pretty far from what an original Junckers PB looks like.

Hi Gatt,

Agreed. I hope you are not the owner?

[Gatt]

Yes I am. I got it in Italy but it was so cheap I couldnt believe it was an original one. Can you please explain me the biggest differences with the original?
Thank you anyway.

Check this thread:

And try searching this forum for "Juncker", "J2" and "J3" - the two latter refers to the variations that this fake tries to mimic.
You'll see there's a lot of obvious differences. Probably the first thing you'll notice is, that the original eagle's face doesn't look like Gonzo with a hangover.

Hello,
It is a bad badge and it is a copy that has been around for some time. Here is a Juncker J2 that resides in my collection and you can see how far off the reproduction really is.
