    Fraser,

    These are extremely rare so I would try to find out more information about the "GI Bring back" route, but as always "buy the item, not the story" and without some rock-solid provenance and proof direct from the veteran and not as a story passed down to a family member, I would remain extremely skeptical since these are copied..

    Hi Smitty, thanks for your reply
    I agree with your buy the item, seller is willing to send it for hands on inspection, not that it means anything
    Here is his story..thanks
    Thankyou for getting g back to me. I understand your concern as to perhaps it not original. I've been the keeper of the badge for 5years now and the way I came about it was cleaning out a home for Mr.Paul Bucham after he had deceased. Paul was a black man who after coming back from the war became the first black police officer here I Douglas Georgia.He has several other items in a museum here in Douglas. The items I've acquired came out of a locker box along with other items and a hand full of hand written checks from 1939 to 1946 and I'm almost certain that no fakes would have been produced as of the time of those items being placed together.In my time with it I've also gotten compliments from owners of original ones person's such as Chris Alisby of the Alisby collection. Other than that I can say no more...

    Ref Mr Ailsby, I can see it's marked as questionable: Ailsby Collection: Hitler Youth Expert Skier Badge

    Hi
    Is there anyone that has an original 1 of these please
    Owner is adamant he got it cleaning out Vet's home
    Vet's uniform and some details about him being a Deputy Sheriff in his town after war are displayed in towns museum, he's trying to get a hold of Vet's sister
    I have had a few positive comments along with guys don't like it, but no why they don't
    Except these are highly copied
    Whilst I'm not very hopeful, I'd like to see an original
    Cheers
    Fraser
