I have one.
I found it in a Montreal store a few months ago. I decided to buy it because (a) my grandparents (whom I never met) were forced to wear them, and (b) there will come a time when people will not only trivialize this symbol -- as you do -- but deny their existence altogether.
BTW, after buying the badge, I found some evidence of authenticity on it: three of the six points bore remnants of the thread used to attach it to the coat. Obviously, the coat was .. er.. recycled.
There`s no need to rush to eBay in search of this badge. It`s not for sale. |
