Vintage pre WWII ID Tags Chasseurs a Pied / Alpins

These ID tags were in use from the 1920's through WWII, based on an earlier model used during the Great War (1914-18). Depicted is the insignia of the battalion of the Chasseurs à Pied or Chasseurs Alpins. The insignia fits the classic 12mm wirelug wristwatch strap as used by British and French officers in WWI. The rear side of the insignia is blanc (apart from manufacturer's name) for engraving name and details. These are genuine, vintage tags that have never been issued.
