Question: What does an Imperial/Weimar organization do when the Nazis come into power and they LIKE their original organization design? (see He-Hu p. 374 1f) Note words are: Bei strenger Pflicht getreu und schleicht------

You guys are really something!!! I am at a loss for words by the beautiful pins that show up all the time. Congratulations to all of you for the knowledge and collections that y'all must have. I was going through He/Hu and checking off all the pins that I have in the book. I'm not done, but here are three that I haven't found. The backs are unmarked, so there is no need of a photo. More later.

I received recently a very big Zeppelin-Collection from a collector who collected this stuff over 30 years.
Here?s one of the rare stickpins of the German-Zeppelin-Reederei.
tarnished gold, well detailled stickpin; came out of a grouping of a crew member of the LZ-129 "Hindenburg".
Beautiful pin Florian. Thank you. Is it marked in any way? Would one of the DZR flags been with the collection?

Can you tell us some more about this interesting and expensive "badge"- jewel
Benten
Benten, I apologize for taking so long to reply....been busy. This wonderful stickpin can from an American WWII vet who was part of a party instructed to pick up Prinz Philipp von Hessen at his residence. Philipp was not there---he had been put into a "camp" by Hitler toward the end of the war. In a dresser drawer was this stickpin....end of story. BUT I would speculate that this pin was given to Philipp by Herman Goering since Philipp was his brother-in-law and he tool Goering on a trip through Italy on Goering's second honeymoon. Philipp was German ambassador to Italy at the time. Only speculation however. Pin is made up of diamonds in a platinum setting with rubies for the swastika.....no maker marks....really no place to put them.

and this pin was made my Hermann Aurich in Dresden.

and here is the pin......I said that the F and B were in a rectangle---it just could be a BIG "H".......

and the hallmark, other than the Ges. Gesch. on the stickpin is an "F" above a "B" in a vertical rectangle. Someone out there will know who this is/was.

OK Don, here are the fronts and backs of the pins you requested.....and yes, Mr Keen Eyes, one of them is gold---I didn't take pics because it is exactly like the one I've posted.

Could the 3 circles be FLL??? Friedrich Linden Ludenschied?? I'm not at my references right now so the spelling and exact name but that is what I associate with the 3 circles. Mike

Here is my "family" of pins---most already covered by others.

Don and Peter.....that is why I asked. I had one at one time, but it never "talked" to me and I was around when they all of a sudden started to appear.

As a probationary member, I have thoroughly enjoyed seeing everyone's beautiful items. It is so interesting how we all love this hobby. Here is my favorite stickpin---it came from Herman Goering's brother-in-law's house. Yes, those are real diamonds--not chips.
