WOUND BADGE 1939 - 1st TYPE "LEGION CONDOR"
€245.00
This Condor Legion Wound Badge is a desirable piece, it is the first pattern of the WWII-era Wound Badge, instituted in 1936 and used by the Legion Condor in the Spanish Civil War, and elsewhere very early in WWII before being replaced by the much more common second pattern badge in 1939.
This is a hollow-backed badge, made of stamped Tombak sheet metal, and is a Black grade. Most of the original black painted finish is still present.
The reverse of this Condor Legion Wound Badge in Black has an uncleaned, old patina, and is complete. The hardware setup consists of a soldered block hinge, and a round wire pin and catch. There is no maker mark, which is typical for these. This first pattern Black Wound Badge is an attractive example of a scarce badge, in excellent condition.
