Finely modeled oak and laurel wreath, surmounted by the Bavarian royal crown and centered by a red-framed shield with diagonal black and white enamel – this hollow-stamped badge was among the highest honors awarded to Bavarian aviators during World War I. The close-up reveals the exceptional craftsmanship of this piece: from the sculptural depth of the wreath to the subtle shimmer of the enamel, elegantly presented in its original fitted case with maker’s mark. A rare and historically significant aviation award – and a highlight for discerning collectors.
What sounds like a movie is, in fact, the complete estate of a Bavarian aerial observer from World War I – meticulously documented, rarely preserved in this detail, and accompanied by the original Bavarian Observer’s Badge in silver. This short video gives you an overview of this remarkable set: Field post, letters, maps, ID cards, flight logs with entries on reconnaissance missions, operational orders, annotated maps, original photographs – including a portrait of the recipient proudly wearing his badge. And at the center: the Bavarian Observer’s Badge in silver, preserved in its original case! An object for collectors – a legacy for history enthusiasts – Lot 16 from our 77th Auction.
