    As requested post your Arbeits Dank pins here, lets see how many makers we can find. For now we'll have both red & yellow versions, if needed I will split later.

    To start, here's one of mine, maker marked ESP.

    Cheers

    Don

    My example has a rather unusual maker's mark. Any one have a clue? Don, who does your MM represent? Robert

    PS I have a stick-pin version as well. I will wait to see all of the pinbacks first before I post it.

    Robert, thank you. It is a close match, a different pin was used but they appear to have used what was available at the moment of assembly. I wish my scanner picked up depth better.

    Hopefully we will see more examples.

    I can not make out your maker mark, can you sketch it?

    E.S.P. could well be EUGEN SCHMIDTHAUSSIER, PFORZHEIM.

    P.&.L. could be PETZ u LORENZ.

    Regards and Merry Christmas all!

    Joe

    Arbeits Dank (Labor Thanks) was established in 1933 to provide assistance to members who had suffered work related injuries or illness, or were involved in work related education.

    My pair, this one with a creamy white background, just marked ges.gesch. Unfortunatly my rubbish scanner does not show the creamy white colour.

    Hello all,

    Sorry for opening this thread again after more than a year, I don't think I had seen it before. In any case here's a picture of my Arbeit Danks pin. And Joe with out knowing it you identified the maker of my pin. As you can see the name is partially obscured by the pin & I wasn't ever really sure who the maker was until I saw your pin. "Scheideanstalt Oberstein. Thanks for that.
