Unknown pair of wing badges
Hi All
Any ideas what these are? They look like collar or maybe shoulder strap devices, each one about 40mm long. Thanks, cheers, Alex |

Hi Mike
Thanks, looks very similar and a possible match. I have seen a lot of WWII era Italian badges and the double, fold-over tangs is common but usually they are thin brass plate but these are better made than that. Maybe earlier issue and better quality? A lot of Italian items made it down here to SA after the war so very likely to be one of them. Cheers, Alex |
