Superb 'Verwundeten-Abzeichen in Schwarz' (or: black-class wound-badge) being a maker- (ie. '81'-) marked example as was produced by the: 'Overhoff & Cie.'-company that comes together with its period (and fully complete) pouch as issued
The black-class wound-badge on offer here shows simply no wear nor age and comes truly in a 'virtually mint- ie. unissued' condition: it is void of any age and retains all of its original, black-coloured- (ie. somewhat 'matted'- ie. satin-like-) finish (as can be seen on the pictures). The wound-badge is as stated above a neatly maker- (ie. '81'-) marked example (as is visible on the back of the badge) that was produced by the (desirable!) 'Overhoff & Cie.'-company based in the town of Lüdenscheid. Of course, are the (regular- ie. thin-shaped-) pin and/or (typical) catch (-set-up) fully functional and of course present. This piece has never been cleaned nor polished: it shows some minimal dust caused by years of storage only. The (scarcely seen!) 'Zellstoff'-based pouch - that shows the makers'-designation: 'Overhoff & Cie. - Lüdenscheid' printed on its back - comes also in a fully functional- and of course complete condition but does show some minimal (storage)age and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). The set was recently found at a German private- household and was never before in collectors'-hands. Simply a very attractive - and fully matching! - WB-set that is impossible to be upgraded and that is accordingly priced!
