BURGERHAUS Posted September 10, 2006 Posted September 10, 2006 Gents Another that has come my way. Zinc in green for women drivers? I can hardly imagine! Thanks for looking. Would someone have the red example? Robert. Husken 4125b
Scowen Posted September 10, 2006 Posted September 10, 2006 Nice find Robert, I know very little about these.CheersDon
BURGERHAUS Posted September 11, 2006 Author Posted September 11, 2006 Don I too have little knowledge about this as well. When it comes to the military aspects of the era, I am in the dark. I basically liked the design and thought it would make an interesting conversation piece (women drivers and all) Logically, it would have to be late war as all of the male drivers were probably sent to the front. Since I have no Heer badges in my collection I think I will place it with my NSF, NSV, and RADwJ items. Maybe a bump up to the Heer section might help stimulate some discussion.
Scowen Posted January 27, 2007 Posted January 27, 2007 I had the oppertunity to pick up the red version this week. Hope you like it, I do....CheersDon
BURGERHAUS Posted January 27, 2007 Author Posted January 27, 2007 Don Nice find! Now all we need is the blue varaition I beleive to complete the set. Thanks for sharing. Robert
Scowen Posted January 27, 2007 Posted January 27, 2007 Blue? According to the reference books, they didn't come in blue, only red & green.... Cheers Don
BURGERHAUS Posted January 27, 2007 Author Posted January 27, 2007 Don Sorry, my mistake. Only green and red. I must be thinking of something else or maybe that Theseare faked so heavily (with oval Hoffstatter pin attachment) that I begin to see things. There are even some European dealers of renown who sell the oval attachment plate as original! My mistake. have a nice weekend. Robert
