Nice condition BTW

That is "the unkwown maker", who also made other LW badges.

Damm, I thought unknown maker as well but the reverse setup through me

Frank,

Are the badges in the thread skip showed all Unknown Maker then? It appears they are pretty close match to that one marked BSW. Or is that particular badge post 1945 stamped? Thanks.

[Frank Heukemes]

Dear Darrel,

It is indeed the same type badge. These "Unknown maker" badges are a bit of a mystery and they can rarely be found with Osang, BSW and Assmann maker marks. The reason behind that is currently unknown.

Thanks Frank ... I was just assuming that they could be attributed to BSW since that one in Skip's thread was mm'd as BSW.

Thanks all for your knowledge about this "unknown maker" .Martin.

IMO this is a FLL ROAG with C-catch....

Hi Rafael,

I agree with you, these "unknown makers" are indeed FLL-made IMO. This is a pretty old thread, and in a subsequent one I believe Frank laid out his evidence to support the notion that these are FLL-made. In the last few years, more and more evidence has been put forth that only supports that theory IMO.
