Attractive, enamelled example of a: DLV (ie. 'Deutscher Luftsportsverband') related so-called: 'Segelflieger-B-Abzeichen' (being a maker- ie. 'Wilh. Deumer'-) marked example that shows an engraved serial-number that reads: '9285')

This is an attractive - and totally undamaged! - example of a: DLV (ie. 'Deutscher Luftsportsverband') related so-called: 'Segelflieger-B-Abzeichen' being a maker- (ie.'Wilh. Deumer - Lüdenscheid'-) marked example that retains an (almost) undamaged enamelled surface and that shows a (fairly low!) engraved serial-number that reads: '9285' and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit moderately used and/or worn-), condition. The attractive badge shows two, white-coloured 'Schwingen' and is thus an example of the so-called: 'B-Klasse' (ie. being a: 'Segelflieger-B-Abzeichen' or: glider-pilots badge of the B-class). These attractive badges were worn by members of the DLV but were also worn by 'regular' LW-staff on the standard LW tunics such as the 'Fliegerbluse' and/or other tunics. The badge originates from a German private-household and is just a bit dirty and shows some age and/or wear. The white- and blue-coloured and neatly enamelled piece comes mounted onto its functional 'buttonhole'-set-up and has an approximate diameter of 2,8 cms. and shows as stated above a clear makers'- and/or 'Ges.Gesch.'-patent-pending-designation and has truly nice enamel which is completely void of any damage: it is just a bit tarnished and somewhat darkened by age. A similar example is also figured in the 'Heering-Hüsken'-lapel-pin-catalogue wherein it is given a unique reference-number (8816I) and is given an estimated value of 95 Eu. Simply an attractive 'DLV'-related so-called: 'Segelflieger-B-Abzeichen' that is I deem fairly priced!
