    Ok, good people I think I have finally remembered where I have seen what made the backwards Eagle ( in the wood ) . Sorry it took so long but my one remaining brain cell gets over loaded easy. I think the backwards eagle was produced by using a type of nazi party lapel pin. It looks the right size and type of image. If the label pin was used to make an impressed image it would produce a reverse image. Un fortunately my client that collect this type of Germanicon memorabilia is no longer in the area to double check with.
