LW Flight Clasps with maker marks

[colin davie]

I have seen Juncker marked gold and silver Recon clasps, did they make the bronze? also I've seen a couple of Juncker bronze bomber clasps, did they also make the silver and gold grades in buntmetal?
I have seen Imme gold and silver buntmetal recon clasps too, but all other maker marked clasps I've found have been zinc... are there many other buntmetal maker marked clasps I've not found that anyone knows of?
In Detlevs book he mentions buntmetal Schlachtflieger clasps,but I've only been able to find zinc examples, I have a zinc Osang in bronze, any info on buntmetal pieces?
Sorry for so many questions.
Any info appreciated.

Hi Colin ...

Here's my experience (and, I acknowledge, limited experience)

I've had a bronze Recon by Juncker ... usual beautiful quality. Unfortunately I've not seen silver and gold Bombers by Juncker, only bronze .... but logically one would expect them to make the three grades??

Buntmetal clasps with makers: in addition to Imme Recon, I've had RSS and Osang Bombers.

Schlachtflieger: I've only had/seen zinc. You may want to do a search of past posts ... I seem to recall some discussion on this.

I look forward to our colleagues' responses.
Best wishes
Paul

Dear Colin,

In Tombak, I know of:

Juncker bronze bomber
Juncker bronze recon
Juncker silver recon
Juncker gold recon
IMME gold recon
IMME silver recon
RS&S silver bomber
Osang gold bomber

Schlachtflieger: only zinc in my opinion.

Thank you guys for the help, I am on a bit of a LW kick at the moment. Some good stuff for me to seek out there.
Paul I will be in Australia next week for 2 months, looking forward to some warm(er) weather.

Thanks again
