M-001 Spectacular, Cased Luftwaffe Fliegerschützen
Abzeichen by Wilhelm Deumer
This is a stunning example of this handsome award. It retains all of
its original silver finish to the wreath and burnished (grey) finish to the
eagle and lightning bolts. The polished swastika (original) shines brilliantly
and stand out nicely over the slightly more matte silver wreath. The matte
finish continues on the reverse of the badge. The eagle is retained to the
wreath by two slightly dome rivets (in a recess). There is a barrel hinge and a
round pin with a flat end. The round wire catch is soldered directly to the
badge. The maker information, W.Deumer Lüdenscheid, is stamped into the body of
the eagle. The original case is finished in blue pebbled leatherette. There is
just minor wear to the exterior of the case. The name of the award is rendered
in gold on the top lid. The interior is lined in blue silk (top) with blue
flocking on the lower section which has a cut out for the badge. The latch for
the case is produced in tombak. This gem would be very difficult to upgrade!
