An original, rare commemorative badge for participants of the 1st Summer Camps Group of Military Preparedness (P.W.) held in Stary Sącz in 1931. The item features the following physical characteristics:
Obverse: A shield with sharp angles featuring a centrally placed raised legionary eagle. Inscriptions include: "I GRUPA OB. LETN. P. W.", the date "1931", and the town "STARY SĄCZ".
Reverse: Smooth, with clear counter-relief from the obverse. The metal is covered with a noble dark patina.
Fastening: A sturdy, centrally placed threaded post. Comes with an original, domed brass nut with a smooth surface. The thread is fully functional.
Material and Craftsmanship: One-piece die-stamped construction made of brass or tombac.
Condition: Very good collector's condition. All details, inscriptions, and eagle feathers are sharp and clear. Fastening construction is stable, with no signs of repair.
This badge is a valuable interwar souvenir documenting the activities of Military Preparedness structures in southern Poland. Summer camps in Stary Sącz were a vital part of the defense training system for youth and reservists in the Second Polish Republic. Due to its local emission and specific dating, it is highly valued by faleristics collectors and regional history enthusiasts.
