Para badge is a copy.
Hello,
It's post WW2 copy.

Yes, in 1st Squadron of 3rd SAS.
ZP,
why do you think he served in SAS?

Crazy price for ordinary parachute badge awarded to ordinary soldier ...
Yes!!!
For me the problem is that BD has 1st pattern collar patches which were generally in use in 1942-43. The para badge is one of the last issued in 1945.
Please look where the para badge is worn!
No interest here?

Embroidered patch is OK. The most popular late variant.
Black and red patches were not used in the 1st Para Bde so it's a fantasy combination.
Left patch looks OK but both metal parachutists...
James,
You are right, the badge is a fake!

Rather clear ... :-)
My fellow checked one parachute badge from group of 0101-0184 (Lorys didn't mention badge no 0184 but it was also re-numbered). It has initial number from range 2319-2400.
I also have a copy of...
Ha,ha!
New world record for ordinary parachute badge!
The badge was given to French SAS troooper who made combat jump in Europe under Free French command.
This is why the badge may be considered...
Yes, but fake.
Ha, ha!
Tom - I like it! :-)
Regarding the badge - it looks like somebody used genuin unissued badge (383?) added 0 to the number. Later he used genuin wreath without a number, stroke proper...
Be sure that the prices will be higher when the list of recipients will be published!

Tom,
I agree with the event but personally Gen. Sikorski gave the badges only to several soldiers. Lt Blusiewicz is not on the list I have from this ceremony.
Tom,
As far as I know Lt Blusiewicz didn't receive his badge from Sikorski's hands during this ceremony.

One of the most expensive poor copies ever sold!
:-)
This is a modern copy as many similar exist. With rather poor design.
Genuine badges were made of coin but there are very rare today.
All badges seem to be poor copies. For sure Polish Air Force squadron badges. Also para badge as Gary wrote.
Hi.
Unfortunatelly both items are post WW II fakes/copies.

A pair of para collar patches - modern fake.
