Adlerhorst

In this case, it is right that there are 2 pins. You can see that the Swaz is not centered in the middle of the Feuerwerker pin as it should be if only one pin.

Skimeisterschaft. Almost all the original gilding absorbed.

I think that it is a fantasy item. In correct German the date would be 23. 02. 30 or even 23. 02. 1930 and they would have mentioned the first name HORST, too. Also the fixing system is not believable.

It is not a separate swastika. This pin exists as shown on the photo.

Hi Adlerhorst!

You may be correct, for several years I have had a feeling that the unmarked ones could be fake. The pin on my one is the same strength as on my marked one & the quality is as good, but I have never been happy with it.

I fully believe that the Frauenschaft badges made by Osange are fake because the quality of the lettering is too good under magnification. Probably machine cut rather than hand cut.

Thanks 

Don

Sorry, I meant that those with the producers name are fakes.

I got one Egendorf badge together with a little certificate that the person has absolved  the school there which interests were to communicate the NS ideas to the civil servants of the Reich.

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

Hi Don !

It's a pity but I am sure that the Frauenhilfsdienst badge is a fake. I also bought one several years ago but the pin is too flexible and the ones with loss of enemal which I saw are all without makers mark.

These came in silver and gold and were honor pins für a regional sports union.

Hello!

 

 

 

I have posted this at the wrong place! Sorry.

Today i got new information abouth this badge.I will post this in : Fascism in Europe:Badge & Regalia.

 

 

 

All the best

I think that it's the middle of a DAF membership pin and the rest has been cut off.

Hi ! There was a really huge amount of these sympathizers badges. I have 5 only with old Adolf on it but there were also others with the swastika.

You only have to have a look into the Hüsken catalogue. Round about 99 % of the German badges with the symbol for the sun are from my collection.

Looks as if its lost the protective loop from the catch, also looks very small, regimental or unit crest? Estonian??

Pete

Hi !

It's surely a German item. I found it twice here but I don't know fro which organisation it is.

On ‎04‎.‎01‎.‎2012 at 16:59, Wood said:

My guess is a patriotic item or perhaps shipping line/sailing souvenir.

Regards,

Pete

I think so, too.

Musn't forget the reverse

A very nice find ! You only see the golden ones on the German market so that yours is more rare and also original.

Enamelled flag.

Nice type which I've never seen before.

4) Sign "Man's amateur choral society Germany" in the city of Wesermunde (till 1939 belonged to the Prussian province Hanover, after Bremen).

Hi ! I got a different one which seems to be the normal one and yours the honor pin.

25 year.

 

Again Poellath style plate.

 

 

There were also 2 types for 50 years. One with the 50 at the bottom like the shown one and one with a 50 in a type of circle on the top of the pin.

I finally managed to find an example of the "standard" badge (minus the wreath) after many years of searching....

The normal membership pins are more rare than those with the oakleaves but I think that the normal ones were given back after being awarded with the oakleaf ones.

Couple of weeks ago picked up this Large (3.5cm x 5.3cm) metal tinnie connected with 1936 Olympic Adlerschiessen. At the time I was at a loss as to what exactly Adlerschiessen was ? Spoke today to a friend, a hobby shooter - apparently there's a shooting disciple in Germany using a rifle and small calibre bullets 4,5mm - shooting at (instead of a round target) a spread black eagle target trying to shoot the wings or legs off the target (included is a picture). I ask members have they seen this tinnie before or know anything about this Olympic discipline ? any relevant info welcome.

It might be a regional shooting tinnie. I also own some medals which have a relation to the olympic games.

My father recently passed away, and I found this pin in while going through his personal items. My father was a WWII US Army Air Corps C-47 radio operator. I have been trying to identify this pin and discovered this web site. I would appreciate any help. Thanks

Hi ! Is it a 800 silver one in 3 cm size ? These are very rare and only given to honor guests.

A very rare Ortsgruppe Fürth-Mitte, 4131o (4118f)

Nice badge which I only know from the old catalogue.

Hi !

Never seen this one before and also no membership book or card with it.

While we're waiting for Rosenberg, here's a members pin for the NS Beamtenfachschaft (The NS Official Trade Association) H? 3507a. It's so tiny, measuring only 12.34mm across.

 

Hi !

André Hüsken made a little mistake. I got 2 pins together with the identity cards. One mentions NS Beamtenarbeitsgemeinschaft, the other NS Beamtenabteilung !

OK----it's not a stickpin, but what the heck.......I'm on a roll!!!

A wonderful pin which I never saw before,too. It was a membership badge for workers of the Loher Enterprise in Ruhstorf.

Hi William,

 

Some nice pieces there, thanks for sharing them. Those WHW shooting pins are nice, I've seen a few different designs around over the years.

 

A nice Sängerbund Westmark pin as well. It looks like there are stil some traces left of the gold on the wreath. Here are my Sängerbund Westmark pins, the standard membership, plus the silver & gold honour versions.

 

Cheers

Don

Hi Don !

If you've seen it in the new Hüsken, there are also those honour pins with Sängergau. But I never saw a simple membership pin with Sängergau !

Sangerbund. Not positive of the time period on this one, appears quite old.

I would guess pre 40's. reverse is unmarked.

--dj--Joe

Hi !

It's a pin from the Deutscher Arbeiter-Sängerbund (German Workers Singer Union) which was a communist association which finished in 1933.

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.

Hi !

They are rare because from a little town and till yet I never saw the golden one.

Hi !

I'm sure that it's a fake. The black enemal is not good and the needle could never been really fixed. I have more than 150 different in my collection.

Kind regards
