Late Heer, which maker?

Hi Ben, look what I picked up recently. Sadly it was on a denazified buckle in poor condition. It was decaying & going to powder like aluminium does when it rots. So I carefully cut it off with a razor & have slipped it on the GHO I got from you. I'm considering a resew as I've come across some 3 ply linen thread that came in a used German 'housewife' that I picked up at a local market, Cheers, Richard.

Hey Richard why waste it, at last a GHO in aluminium with a tab lol

Hi Ben, the buckle body was well knackered & crudely denazified (no eagle or swastika), so it had to go. On the tab, it looks a bit of a rush job to me with the crooked maker mark & the stitching oddly uneven on one side only!!, Cheers, Richard.

Hi Ben, Lakesider has a steel Osang for sale http://www.lakesidetrader.com/pics/BB-521d.jpg shame it's seen better days, Cheers, Richard.

P.S. - Nice eagle profile though.

Yeah, it's a shame; but at least we know they're out there. I'll wait for a better condition one I think, Cheers, Richard.

If you are looking for one let me know, I think I have seen a near mint one somewhere
