The (I deem) fairly early- (ie. pre-) war-period- and/or very detailed war-badge (ie. 'LW-Flugzeug-Beobachter-Abzeichen' or: observers-war-badge) has only moderately been used- ie. worn and comes naturally mounted on its fully functional (and fully unaltered!) pin- and/or functional catch (ie. catch set-up). The award shows a 'separately'- (and/or very detailed!) bluish-black-coloured eagle-device attached (by means of two firmly attached copper-based rivets as is visible on the back). The badge truly retains most of its period finish but does show a minimally tarnished- (ie. typical 'Buntmetall'- ie. 'Tombak'-like-) age-patina as is more often encountered on these high-quality produced war-badges. The badge is totally void of a makers'-designation but can with certainty be attributed to the desirable maker: 'Assmann u. Söhne' as based in the town of Lüdenscheid: the award shows naturally all the specific details as known for a badge by this particular maker. The piece - which is I deem of the second pattern - is still somewhat stained ie. dirty but has (I deem) never been cleaned: the bright silver-coloured wreath and/or somewhat bluish-coloured eagle-device both retain a very nice albeit minimally tarnished appearance. The piece originates from a private- household in Germany and was never before in collectors'-hands. These attractive - and fairly early-period! - 'Flugzeug-Beobachter-Abzeichen' by the 'Assmann u. Söhne'-company can easily be graded: 'scarce' and come not that often for sale!
