Infanterie-Sturmabzeichen Grossmann&Co

Good day to everyone!
Would like to show You my latest addition- ISA made by Grossmann&Co,one of the rarest makers of those badges.
It's not that easy to find those in any condition,at least, it wasn't easy for me. I hope You will like it.

With best wishes
Peter

Hello peter

Congrats on tracking down one of the most difficult solid zinc ISA's produced....

I have always wondered if the efficient, but somewhat delicate hardware attachment system had something to do with the limited numbers of Grossman & Co. examples still around today.

There looks to be some pitting on the surface of the badge; most likely this is from poor storage.
I would apply a very light coating of Vaseline to this one.

Nice find!

Best Regards, fischer

Hello.
Thanks,fischer.
Is there some specific Vaseline I should use? Or some that I should avoid? I have seen different kinds of it in the shops.
Thanks again
Peter

This one will work good...just remember less is more.

Hi.
Thanks for your post.
I know three other collectors have this manufacturers badge, two of them are also on this forum.
This badge is ground dug, coming from Belarus, very nice condition for a ground dug item.
Regards,
Peter
