Ok time for a bit of education here & fun here. From my rather poor picture at the top of this thread can anyone tell me which 2 badges I believe to be cast copies....... I shall post scans later to explain my theory. Cheers Don

Hi Kevin, Yes, the colour of the border signifies the level of command the member of staff held: Blue for Orts Black for Kries (between 1933-1938) White for Kries (from 1939-1945) Red for Gau Yellow for Reich The size of the silver edging around the badge broke the command down still further. Cheers Don

Thought you may enjoy seeing what arrived yesterday. There's a few doubles that will need re-homing, but on the whole a pleasing haul. If you wish to see more detailed shots of any, just ask otherwise I won't take up space posting them all. Cheers Don

Indeed a very smart design. Thanks for sharing it with us Benton. Cheers Don

That's better Peter, you can stay I really like these Scandinavian items, I think they are very underated by Third Reich Collectors. If you have more perhaps we could start a seperate thread for them? Cheers Don

Rick is on the ball here..... Definitely one for the hall of shame. Cheers Don

Peter, It never ceases to amaze me just how skilled the people who made the dies for these must have been. We take this sort of thing for granted nowdays with modern machines & cutters, but 70 years ago it was all done by hand. Cheers Don

Oi! Who let that red spy in......... Nice pin Peter, not to my taste, but nice Like the RAD pin Robert. I recently came across a picture of one of these being worn by a young soldier, haven't managed to secure it yet..... Cheers Don

An excellent thread Jan Arne. Thank you for showing these fascinating badges & documents Cheers Don -
Robert, now it's my turn to be impressed.......... a Reichverband deutscher Fleischbeschauer-und Trichinenschauer-Verb?nde pin, very nice. I assume unmarked? I'd had the picture for quite sometime before the pin arrived quite unexpectedly through the post from a good friend of mine who thought I'd like one....... Cheers Don

Thanks. They can be hard to find at times. Here is a picture of one in wear. Cheers Don

Nice pins James. Robert, Yes it was one of those Nationalistic groups. There are a number of forms & variants of these, the reverse is totally unmarked. Here's another I recently received, also unmarked. Cheers Don

Here's another that you don't seem to see much. Cheers Don

Back to famine by the looks of things...... Here's mine, also Neff. Can't really comment on your Westmark as I can't say 100% that mines genuine. Cheers Don
