    Pilot Badge Maker Marks

    Hi All, I have been driving myself crazy trying to figure out the different variations in maker marks of a given manufacturer. Also at what year or point they changed their mark. Would love to find a list of each manufacturer's maker marks on a time line. Also a time line of the different versions of a given badge and maker. Any help would be appreciated! Best to all! Tom

    Buying Privitera's book on the Luftwaffe badges would an excellent investment.

      An excellent though broad question. Steve's book is a good start. But you need to take some time on the WAF. Read the articles on badges. Read the threads on maker marks. Enjoy a liberal application of the search button!

      Welcome and enjoy the forum!

        Hi Tom,

        Welcome to the forum. I agree with the others, Privetera's book is a good start but doing a search on the forum (top right of your screen) would give you a good idea of the different type of maker marks that will be seen.

        Actually, these would make some really good threads if we could do them for each maker. I just finished a book on the Paratrooper badges, and there is actually 6 distinct type of maker marks used just by Assmann! And that is ONLY on the Para badges, does not include their Pilot, POs and ROAGs!

        If it doesn't have a hinge and catch, I'm not interested......well, maybe a little
