Hi fellow collectors! I´m thinking of adding this badge to my collection. What do you think about it. IMO it looks fine but I´m no expert and would like to have your opinions about it. Thank you in advance.

I think it looks fine Mike but wait for some of the badge collectors to confirm.

I like it...The needle and hook look good to me, and a seldom seen maker's mark...

A good one indeed! Not a rare maker (Zimmerman),but the hardware has a more desirable set-up. Stewy

I agree with the others...a good original Zimmermann with a sheet metal hinge. There are several different hardware set ups for these solid FZS examples and it appears they used whatever was available. Zimmermann along with Wiedmann, ShuCo and FLL are a variant collectors dream. As stated, not extremely rare but a variant that is highly sought after...especially in nice condition.

Best Regards, fischer
