Deutscher Luftsportverband (DLV) Badge St. & L.

[Steelhead10]

Hi all,

Came across this at a price that makes it seem too good to be true for one of these so thought I'd get some photos and opinions before I made a decision to buy this. I'm not too well versed with German enamel pins of the Third Reich.
It's marked GES. GESCH. on both the badge itself and the pin device and on the badge St. & L.

Thanks in advance,
Matt

Some hopefully steadier pictures

I decided to buy this as I could get a deal on the M1/63 NSDAP Parteiabzeichen if I bought both.
I think it was a fair deal to get both for £100

Matt, I think it's a nice looking badge and you got a nice deal. Authentic Steinhauer & Lück, Lüdenschied to my eyes. Here are some of my pins and cap badge for comparison. There are a lot of variation's in these badges

Thank you for your reply. I noticed that there's a lot of variations with these and not a lot of documentation as to what's correct or not.

Steadier, indeed. St&L were prolific makers of small enamels and your example looks very nice.

Thank you both for your replies.

Got some close up photos in natural light without a glass table top behind before I go to work today.
