Guest Rick Research Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 I believe that is the flag of the Norddeutscher Lloyd (NDL) shipping line. Probably indicating that the wearer was an employee while in civilian clothes.Very nice indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taz Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Hi Rocky,The Key is an emblem of the city of Bremen. So possibly a shipping company based there.Regards Eddie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul R Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 What time period is this piece? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky Posted December 18, 2007 Author Share Posted December 18, 2007 Rick & Taz,Bingo and fast as well. Thank You & Happy Holidays Paul,I believe it to be early 1900, it is in a perfect maroon push button case with a 25 on the top, perhaps a 25 year service award. This one resides in my collection.
