Luft Flak & GAB?

[AFF96]

Hi guys!
Are these two badges OK?

Sadly the catch on the tombak flak is broken.

Also if they are good, is it possible to tell the makers? I looked & just couldn't tell.

Thanks!!
Greg

Hi Greg,

The ball hinge flak is a very nice example, too bad about the catch though.

However, I am not a fan of this LGAB. The finish and reverse hardware look strange, and the eagle seems to be taken from an Arno Wallpach.

I agree. The flak badge is good and the gab looks odd.

So it's all agreed the GAB is a fishin' lure or a strange variant
Thanks!
