Bob Hunter Posted May 21, 2005 Share Posted May 21, 2005 The sheer number and variety of these badges must be staggering. Does anyone have and estimate of how many different kinds there are? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scowen Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 According to Robin Lumsden, in 1941 it was estimated that there were then 32,000 different designs of badge in circulation......CheersDon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 One of my favourite designs although not Third Reich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph A Posted May 28, 2005 Author Share Posted May 28, 2005 (edited) Those are nice. See the sunwheel swastika motif buried in the design at the eagle's feet? Edited May 28, 2005 by Ralph A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter J Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 Another endless tinnie-thread Ralph . Why not, this is eye-candy.Here are two odd pieces. The first is a struck, vaulted thingy with a nailattached in 90 degrees. It's marked on the reverse BERA?N (the N is mirrored) D?BRE(similar N)IEIU2. Perhaps it's been attached to a thickwalking stick?The 2nd one must be a conversion of some kind. The 4 pins on the anchorhas been removed and a needle-hinge has been attached to two plates,formed to fit the anchor. Any ideas on this one?KRPeter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
