    Folks,
    I dont usually collect these, but aquired them along the way. Can anyone tell me what they might be and what kind of value they might have? Thanks

    The first badge on the right corner is an engineer of the Air Force
    The second, written on G.I.L. Palermo, is a youth Fascist sportive badge.
    The others 3 are badges of youth Fascist organization.

    In Italy aren't rare and their value is about 25-30 $ each.

      Just to "add" alittle to what "Ital.W-SS" wrote....

      the 1st badge is an Ital. Air Force Photographers "Speciality/Qualification" wings, sounds rare but they aren't....quite common.

      The GIL Palermo is "alittle more interesting" than some....(Sicily/Fascist Youth) but in the given price range....

      The Mussolini without a helmet badge is an earlier version and not as common as the other two....all three are more in the catagory of "HJ Proficiency Awards" than just membership badges... Ital. Youth was divided into 3 age groups/Male & Female, and it's ranking system evolved more than once durning the fascist period.

      Still under appreciated (and under valued) stuff....
