summer65 Posted June 24, 2021 Share #1 Posted June 24, 2021 I was wondering if any one has come across a screwback 8th Army patch type DI. I have two that are pinback. One of which is foreign made. Thanks, Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wake1941 Posted June 24, 2021 Share #2 Posted June 24, 2021 Have any pics ? It sounds like the one you are describing as screwback is likely Asian made. I’ve had a few like that before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
summer65 Posted June 24, 2021 Author Share #3 Posted June 24, 2021 I bought it on ebay. It was listed under Jewelry & Watches Pins and Brooches. Waiting for delivery. I will then add a photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

summer65 Posted August 20, 2021 Author Share #5 Posted August 20, 2021 I have the DI and will add photo today. Sorry on the delay. I forgot about it. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
summer65 Posted August 20, 2021 Author Share #6 Posted August 20, 2021 Here are the photos. My original question was, did this 8th Army DI come in screwback? I guess that's a silly question. The one I have is a screwback. Also, could it be foreign made? It appears to be quite thin. Again, sorry for the delay.

Wake1941 Posted August 20, 2021 Share #7 Posted August 20, 2021 It’s Japanese made, they did make Pinback US version. But this is certainly Japanese Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
summer65 Posted August 21, 2021 Author Share #8 Posted August 21, 2021 Thank you Wake1941 for the info. Like I've said before, you never know where your going to find DIs. Found this on ebay under Vintage and Antique Jewelry, Pins and Brooches. This one gives me three nice variations. Thanks again, have a great weekend.
