WWI Dallas Wing

[jkjoller]

Hi All- I'm new to this forum and excited to jump right in. I've just started collecting WW1 wings and found this one. Can any experts weigh in on its legitimacy? Based on my studies, it looks good but would love other opinions.

Welcome to the forum JK.

This type of award is not an area I study but it sure looks neat. Maybe something I should start looking into...LoL

Anyway, some guys will be around. Be patient. It's late Aug and lots of people are on vacation

I know that these are reproduced but have never handled one of these. But I am looking at one on this site and I am seeing several differences between your's and a known good one. What I am seeing is the feathers sizes(second row not the tips) and the horizontal dot count on the shield. Maybe they had different dies they used. They did have different patterns. But member Walkwolf would be The Man who's word I would trust on these

Also maybe the Mod's could move this to a more appropriate section where it will get more eye's on this.

My area is WWII wings, so not my field. As said they look good, but I would say
there are more repro's around than originals..........
