Help on an SMB Pilots badge

[GaryC]

Have the opportunity to get this pilots badge. Maker is stamped not raised leters. S B M inside a clover. The clasp hook has been repaired. Trying to get the pics on but no luck yet hopefully I will get them tonight. Any thoughts on this maker?
Thanks

Hi Gary,

It should be BSW not SBM.

Cheers,

Frank

Hi Gary,

it´s BSW not MSB.

Frank is right, as he is most of the times

That looks like an original zinc BSW pilot badge with a repaired catch, so you surely have misread the maker mark.

Gary,

A nice BSW Zincer. Here is its brother:

Thanks, First I want to apologize for the picture post attatchment. For some reason it slapped the pic right on to the post instead of the link.

Second I guess the makers mark was upside down in the pic I seen of it. If the clover is upside down it would be Like this:
B S
W
Is this correct?
Thanks.

[Frank Heukemes]

Correct.
