Superb - and simply never worn! - WH (Luftwaffe) 'Krim'-campaign-shield (as was produced by a by me unidentified maker) and that comes in a presumably issued- albeit still 'virtually mint', condition
This is a truly very attractive - and I deem simply never worn! - example of a typical, presumably non-maker-marked, WH (Luftwaffe) 'Krim'-campaign-shield as was produced by a by me unidentified maker and that comes in a probably issued albeit still 'virtually mint'- (and with certainty never tunic-attached!-), condition. The shield - that comes mounted onto its original, bluish-grey-coloured 'backing' - comes in a fully untouched condition and was with certainty never cleaned. It comes naturally complete with its metal-based back-plate and has all its four prongs in place: is also retains most of its (typical) protective, black-coloured- and/or paper-based backing (as can be seen on the pictures). The shield - which is minimally converse-shaped as more often - truly retains all of its original, bright-golden-coloured- and somewhat 'glossy' finish ie. bronze-like appearance (most of its period 'Brennlack' is still present!) and was never cleaned nor polished: it does show some minimal storage-age ie. staining. This particular piece originates from the USA where it was brought as a souvenir after the war: the soldier who kept this for decades glued this example in a scrap-book (the piece comes still glued onto a piece of carton as can be noticed on the pictures). Simply a very attractive and desirable 'Luftwaffe'-pattern, 'Krim'-campaign-shield that was surely issued but never worn. I deem that I have priced this wonderful and/or untouched specimen, accordingly!
