Gents Today being one of the nicer days of Spring I decided to venture down to the local antique and collectibles market. Am I glad I did. I almost had forgotten how exciting it is to go from table to table in search of nice items. I got to handle at my liesure, I didn't have to hear a lecture from an "expert" and there were some items mixed in with other collectibles to look at. No militaria tables per se. I truly beleive that nothing beats physically handling an item. No trick camera angles either. I relied on memory on this one. I also got a KdF tinnie I had never seen before mixed in with costume jewelry in a cigar box. It was a blast. Have a good day. Robert

Don Coming from you that means alot. The legitimate maker numbers for Frauenschaft badges are hard to keep straight without any reference in hand. Frank & Reif is ingrained in my memory for some reason. Have a good day. Robert

Robert, finding TR related items in a cigar box was more than plausible in my early collecting days. The thrill of the hunt is long since gone . It's nice to see that there is still some hope. Nice find
