bobgee Posted November 10, 2018 Share #1 Posted November 10, 2018 I acquired this group about 2 years ago from a collector in Paris who found it in Germany at an antique store. The dealer said it was brought in by a woman who would not give a name. There is no doubt in my mind that this is a group to one pilot. Everything just has the look of of having been together for a long time and the wear is consistent on all pieces. It fits a group of documents I have .

bobgee Posted November 11, 2018 Author Share #6 Posted November 11, 2018 Thanks for the comments. Just for the record the Pilot's badge is hall-marked 'BSW', the silver wound badge is HM '30' and the EK I is a screw-back HM' L58', the Gold Bomber clasp with Hanger is HM R.S.S.

Militiaman Posted December 14, 2018 Share #9 Posted December 14, 2018 Very nice! The case appears rather interesting as well. Did it come with the grouping? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobgee Posted December 14, 2018 Author Share #10 Posted December 14, 2018 Very nice! The case appears rather interesting as well. Did it come with the grouping? Yes - the box came with the group. It's not any kind of military container - looks like an old box for some kind of silverware. Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainofthe7th Posted December 19, 2018 Share #11 Posted December 19, 2018 Yes - the box came with the group. It's not any kind of military container - looks like an old box for some kind of silverware. Bob I think the case really complete's the group, though! Can't say it's the best part, but there's something wonderful about it. All of the insignia is gorgeous. Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
