Sorry this one is a fake. It does not match to an original badge by this maker.

Cheers, Ade.

Thanks Ade for quick one.

Agree with Ade, a really poor fake. If you can find a pic of an original Assman, compare the differences, Assman made quality badges.

Very nice John! That's the quality I mentioned.
An ugly eagle but a quality ugly eagle! (IMO)

Hi John, I was only talking about this with our mutual friend Gary the other week. I came across some old lists from M&T militaria dating from the early 1990's. A single one line typed description, no pictures. But that was how we all bought stuff mail order. How times change!

Cheers, Ade.
