ARTIFACT: This is a beautiful Spanish Civil War era Legion Condor observer wing made in Germany by Meybauer (circa 1938-1940). The Legion Condor was born on November 7, 1936 as a response to Franco's request for firepower assistance in the Spanish Civil War. Second in command of the fledgling yet powerful group was Oberst Wolfram Freiherr von Richthofen, a cousin of the "Red Baron". The wing has a golden crown at the top and a condor bearing a golden star against a circle of red enamel at its center.

VINTAGE: Circa Spanish Civil War.

SIZE: Approximately 1-5/16" in height and 3-3/8" in width.

MATERIALS / CONSTRUCTION: Plated brass, gilt brass, enamel.

ATTACHMENT: Horizontal T-style pin with C catch.

MARKINGS: Meybauer maker mark.

ITEM NOTES: This is from a foreign militaria collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. CON-DMM-25-13 L/SAEGEX8/13

CONDITION: 7+ (Very Fine+): The wing shows some light wear and tarnish; all enamel is intact.

GUARANTEE: As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
