    2. Picked up this membership badge - Bund Deutscher Osten small 1,5cm x 1,8cm. Organization concerned with the Eastern territories and German peoples annexed at the end of WW1. Made by Hofstätter Bonn.

    8. Don - yours looks in much better shape than mine. Don't expect to see many of these badges posted, hardly remember seeing any on the forums. Do you have anything on 1st & 2nd types ? Cheers
    9. Picked up this DBV (Deutscher Büro u. Behördenangestellten Verband) enamelled badge members badge 3rd Type stick-pin - small, no makers mark. I wonder, perhaps members would like to show any 1st & 2nd types they may own, I know I would like to see them or indeed any 3rd type they own. Looked for a thread covering these badges, unable to find anything. Cheers Ps - a swine to photograph black enamel.

    12. 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.
    13. Hello Burgerhaus, Sorry the picture is a bit dark, here's another shot - a lighter shot (still not the best I've ever done) depicts, I take to be a KdF's trip to the Oberbayern Alps with the sun, rising above the mountain peaks.
    14. Württemberg-Hohenzollern KdF1935 fahrt Oberbayern ------- although Tieste's catalogue shows 4x KdF Wütrttember-Hohenzollern 1935 badges -- this isn't one of them (at least in my catalogue) any member seen it before ?
    15. Thanks Don,Östa for the help. I did a google search actual didn't turn up so much information as such, a small number on offer at different sites in 35 - 50€ price range, with the dearest on offer by far, as to be expected, tended by Hüskens 135€.
    16. Picked up this small (16mm diameter x 22mm long) RJA badge at the weekend. Unable to find it in Hüskens catalogue or on any military sites, can anyone tell me where it belongs. Any relevant information welcome.
