My preference is fantasy figs.

--dj--Joe

Have some American Civil War figs. One example.

Some more detailed than others.

--dj--Joe

I do not have much to show from the modern era. Some future warrior SF type figs. here is one example, 28mm.

--dj--Joe

Excellent work by all! I am impressed by the talent shown!

For fun. A small friend of mine in 28mm.

What is the device or emblem the hands are clasped through? Please.

--dj--Joe

My mind keeps strolling back to this question, not an insightfull thought coming but here goes. Could it be that with the plethora of organizations and the periodic changing of titles for many of these organizations they simply confused the situation? Left hand did not always know what the right hand was about?

Not helpfull, I know.

--dj--Joe

had to move the cat.

Do the Studentenbund badges ever pop up on in wear photos?

Thanks Don, I'm taking notes so I will be prepared at my next militaria show.

--dj--Joe

Looks like P&L did not get with the program on RJAD in the triangle. Just RAD.

--dj--Joe

Nice looking set! Don, Is there a rule of thumb about base metal materials used? Perhaps a break down by years? I know some to be made of zinc base metal due to the color loss. As reported by Pete, a magenetic badge, and your 1939 silver badge. Was a tombac base metal used on early awards?

Much to learn before I dive in.

--dj--Joe

The enamel work appears to be high quality.

Any thing new and exciting from Tirol ? All grouped together these can be quite spectacular.

Don, your collection, enthusiasm and knowledge of these awards has prompted me to add at least one example to my collection.

--dj--Joe

Robert, congratulations on an intriguing find.

--dj--Joe

Peter, I appreciate all the thought you have put into this! Wish I could be of help. I have no idea! I never even got around to collecting any of the pins in question, yet.

In wear photos may be of some help if they can be located.

Looking forward to your findings.

--dj--Joe

Would think images of the large case would show up in photos.

--dj--Joe

Eric, I wish to thank you for sharing. Always great to see period in wear photos. Always something to learn.

--dj--Joe

Appreciate seeing it. Thanks.

--dj--Joe

Many thanks Don. Quite interesting and pretty sure a first time see for me. I have a nagging feeling I have seen something somewhere with Hausrat on it.

--dj--Joe

Don, thanks for the fast reply! I learned something new on the DAF plaque, thanks, and again congrats. on a nice bunch of items.

--dj--Joe

Don, some nice tinnies! A couple of interesting Organizational badges also! I see you located another Volkmusik. An interesting DAF. I have seen the blue badge with the airplane before but the organization escapes me.

The State yacht badge is also a nice addition. Which one is it for?

What is the attachment assembly on the DAF tinnie, 2nd from left in the top row? Prong back?

Thanks for the look!

Congratulations,--dj--Joe

Good addition Don, the image on the poster is a match for Pete's in post #20.

--dj--Joe

Robert,

Very nice!

--dj--Joe

Wood, nice WHW's, many thanks, post#86 the Gau Pommern has a different hanging/retaining devise from any I have seen.

I admire the Gau karnten in post #80 also.

regards,--dj--Joe

I recall where one other example was. J.S. But whether he still has it or not?

--dj--Joe

Spelling repair.

Don, thank you very much. I saw "h" some place some time ago. Will give a look, if it's still there I will give you a shout.

I never connected "e" with Opffer-ring, it's my personal top choice of the eight styles.
