Fake Society Of The Friends Of Aviation North-West District. - Norm Braddock - 05-01-2008
Got me a badge comprised of the following:
-top of badge=red enamel star with circle. within circle is 1923. red enamel inside circle. circle and 1923 are in "gold"
-behind the star left lower point is a biplane.
-behind biplane is larger hammer and sickle
-behind handle of hammer and sickle handle is a banner in blue enamel which is situated at the bottom.
-top two sides of star on the back appear to be secured by "wire" to the hammer and sickle.
-two rivets secure the hammer and sickle hammers to the banner on the back.
Written in Russian but spelled in English is the following:
O.DR. VOZD.FLOTA C-3 06
No markings on the back of badge or screwback. Screw looks like Mickey Mouse hat with ears. Ears are hollow. What is the above pls?

Are there anyone in the right frame of mind that would think that this badge is original?:chuckle Just look at the fake patina, cast star, ugly patina, etc. I want apologies. If you think that this is original, I can sell it back to you for $250, considering it worth $1500. Let me know.
Oleg.
Here more pictures of this fake. I had to clean it up from the fake patina.
