Allan H. Posted November 12, 2019 Share #5 Posted November 12, 2019 I've seen a number of these, but have never owned one. This is probably the nicest hallmark I've ever seen from them. The hallmark is usually not struck square on the wing. Triple Canopy could provide some more photos for comparison I believe. Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

triplecanopy Posted November 12, 2019 Share #7 Posted November 12, 2019 Here are two of the H Clein Jeweler made jump wings that Allan mentioned. Some appear to be well struck with the name while others are less distinct. I will post a couple more examples below. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

triplecanopy Posted November 12, 2019 Share #9 Posted November 12, 2019 Two more examples of H Clein jump wings are shown here. One has a combat jump star. These wings are from long ended eBay listing photos I saved. One has very clear markings and the other is not very well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
