    1. Came across this Opferring membership pass - different design from Don's shown in post 5, maybe due to different area - Württemberg 1939. Swastikas blacked out.
    2. Thanks for the posts Don, after reading them I did find the piece on page 403. Glad you mentioned the suspect paint work, I was wondering, as on mine and Weitze's badges there not one speck of paint / enamel on any of them, to me and mine hasn't a scratch there never was any paint. A compliment, this thread and others in the enamel & membership database are head and shoulders above anything else on offer, I could find in any of the military forums, when it comes down to in-depth detail. Cheers
    3. Elsass Opfering Not seen in the thread so far, also not shown in Hüsken's 2010 catalogue. All metal 2,3cm dia.detailed back with makers name - Foerster & Barth - Pforzheim, RZM and M 9/7 marks. Why its not in the catologue, I've no idea,don't think its especially rare, at the time of writing Weitze has three on offer.
    4. Not shown before on thread - 4cm diameter - Metal - Jungbann 7 Sportfest 1936 Lüben
    5. Picked up these four stick-pins last summer, unsure exactly what three of them are for, left to right - (1) Looked through Hüskens catalogue, found to be a Nazi sympathisers badge. (2) Could be a WW1 veterans badge, never come across such a design, wound badge on top of a iron cross ! (3) Swastika on flower (edelweiss) maybe for a Hochland Group sympathiser ? (4) Small pin - swastika in laurel wreath Does anyone have any ideas ? Regards
    6. Yes - a nice piece, rarer HJ tinnies are always collectable, even without their fixing pin. Its in Tieste's catalogue priced at €30, but his prices are all over the place. I feel you could easily ask €50 for it, without raising eyebrows. Regards
    7. Greglingen 1934 - 47 Hohenloher Kreis - Turnfest - Brass 3cm square.
    8. Yes, the Schützen Konig looks a bit like a Christmas Tree - wearing his WW1 medals and shooting badges altogether. Looking through Hüskens Abzeichen catalogue, it seems both the Schützenbund and Schützenverband co-existed together at the time of the Third Reich, perhaps a member could give some information, about the differences between the two organizations. According to the catalogue the Verband had a lot more badge awards. Here's another Hunting and Shooting badge - nicely designed Tages Abzeichen badge for the cartel for hunting and sport shooting formed by Reichsjager Meister Herman Göring. It says under the swastika-clutching eagle: “Spende, Nation, Arbeit,” (Charity, Nation, and Work). The goals of the gentleman shooters and hunters - Charity,Nation,Arbeit -.measures 29mm square. Metal
    9. Here's a couple of WW2 WHW stickpins used to support Deutscher Schützenverband - assume it was the forerunner of the Schützenbund first shown, there seem to be a lot of design variants, but the target feature in the design always seems prominent. I see that the Deutscher Schützenverband had a large number of different badges, strangely I've only found this thread or maybe I've been looking in the wrong places on the forum.
    10. Managed to get a picture of reverse of the above badge. The maker is indeed the same one
    11. Cloth Banner Form 30 x 90mm Kempten - May Day 1938 with a representation of the "Burghalde"
    12. Came across this - NSKK Motorgr. Hochland Wintersportkämpfe 1939 badge, looking at it, its style is very similar, it could well be a later companion - although the name is slightly different. Unfortunately not been able to discover who the maker was, only have this picture Cheers
    13. Hello, I've had this small enamelled NSKK - Motorbrigade Hochland Wintersportskämpf 1937 badge for some time. Now and again, I do a trawl of the military sites, hoping to turn up another like this one, until now without any success. I wonder, have members come across this or a similar badge ?. Cheers
    14. Small silver tinnie - International Film Kongress Berlin 1935 came in two variants Gold & Silver.
    15. EK2 Citation - Earlier Signature 5.2.40 possibly awarded for the polish campaign - constant signature
    16. Here's a rare Nesselwang HJ Badge, a least I don't remember seeing another one,not shown on this thread - "Team Ski Races Gebiet Hochland 1935 Nesselwang"
