Joe, I'll email a link with the best area on Ebay to search. Regarding the Eiesnbahner, I wish I could find a picture of it in wear. Unfortunately it's so small I doubt that it would easily be seen in a picture. Cheers Don

The reverse is not so clean

I for one will accept your challenge Robert! Here's mine, looks the same to me. Cheers Don

Hers's one rarely encountered, NS Eisenbahner membership pin. The reverse is unmarked. Cheers Don

May as well repost it Joe. Cheers Don

Indeed it does Joe. The Hitlerbewegung is a prime example of a badge that should be there, as well as many other Austrian badges

For anyone who hasn't noticed, we now have a new forum to encompass organisations that perhaps do not quite fit in here. Badges etc from fascist organisations & parties from other countries & areas such as Scandinavia etc It's remit is for "discussions relating to the badges and regalia of the various Fascist Parties in Europe during the 20th Century. It includes National Socialist Parties operating in Nazi Occupied Territories" Here is a link if you care to pay a visit. http://gmic.co.uk/index.php?showforum=181 I hope to see you over there. Cheers Don

Nice one Joe, the only MW I can find in the RZM listings is M.Winter, M?nchen, possibly them? Here's one with a different maker, Christian Theodor Dicke, L?denscheid.... Cheers Don

Thought it might be helpful to have a size comparison.

Reverse marked to Steinhaur & Lück

Came across a mini recently, not in such a good condition, all of the silver wash has worn away. Cheers Don

Very nice, I'd forgotten this thread I really like the Erwache one, thanks for showing them. Cheers Don

Thank you Gentlemen for your kind words. I must admit I was pleased to get one. Cheers Don

Sorry Nick, I don't know anything about these at all Cheers Don

This is the standard type III members badge used between 1939-'44. These would be for women who paid a monthly or weekly subscription to the Frauenschaft. The ones I showed above were for staff - people actually employed by the organisation, but not members of the NS party. Hope this helps. Cheers Don

Very nice Joe, well done, our first Herman Aurich Thanks for posting it. Cheers Don

Thank you Gentlemen. Cheers Don

And very nice it is too!. I don't know much about these at all. I do know that I've never seen one with a maker mark, only ever Ges.Gesch, & for some reason when they do turn up they're always expensive. Thanks for showing it. Cheers Don

What's going on with that twiddly bit by the catch? Cheers Don

I'd love to live somewhere that got snow like that! Cheers Don

Here are a couple of badges for those members of the Frauenschaft who were not members of the Party. Only NSDAP members were allowed to wear the version with the Eagle & Swastika, the others had to wear the sun wheel version. Orts level H? 9118nb Cheers Don
