    The catch plate on this one would indicate a post war Souval badge.

      I agree with Ralph. It has the typical Souval catch and design

          Souval is the Austrian maker Rudolf Souval that continued to produce awards after the war

            thank you rbminis and Hans. I should have made sure it was a clearer photo before posting. So, Souval made awards during the war. What would his catch and pin have looked like during the third reich. Or was it the same as this one? could you lead me to an example. regards Helene

              This setup was used on many clear postwar products from Souval.

              Some rumours are saying that it was invented at the end of the war but i would be careful with this statement.
              Best regards, Andreas

                Thanks Andreas for your reply. That catch set up..... would that have been because of the lack of materials or just craftsman?

                  It is a 100% post war Souval made SWB check out the data base here on Souval war time SWBs and you will see the difference it is very clear that this badge is post war.
