Signalcorps45 Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Hello to everyone, I recently picked up this 3 placer. I am looking for information on the 3rd medal. It looks to be a true service Chamber of Commerce/Industry medal. It lists two cities Kassel and Muhlhausen on the back of the medal. These are separate cities. I am looking for information on how this medal was issued. Any information would be appreciated. 3 minutes ago, Signalcorps45 said: Hello to everyone, I recently picked up this 3 placer.

VtwinVince Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 (edited) Nice bar . These semi-official awards were given out by many states, and you sometimes find them on military bars. This one used to be in my collection. Edited June 21, 2019 by VtwinVince Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Signalcorps45 Posted June 21, 2019 Author Share Posted June 21, 2019 Vince, I am trying to nail down where this was issued from. The two cities listed on the back are near each other but do not connect. Is this a regionally issued medal? Would the recipient have been either from Kassel or Muhlhausen? Thank you Dean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedytop Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Hi, it was the „Industrie- und Handelskammer Kassel-Mühlhausen Sitz Kassel“ since 1932. A combination of two Industrie- und Handelskammern (IHK), IHK Kassel and IHK Mühlhausen/Thüringen. The connection ended in 1935. Uwe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
