Hello there! These look a lot like WHW tinnies. Hundreds if not thousands were made and sold to help finance charitable work in Germany. See link:

Not sure about the paper one. Might have been attached to a tinnie.

First one. Is a "tinney" or day badge for GAU MAGDEBURG ANHALT 1938. Simple and cheap souvenir pins sold to sponsor and support whatever organization or event they represent. Very popular in Germany during this period.
2nd is a stick pin Infantry Assault badge on it's LDO sales card
3rd is a Tinney for the 1939 Reichparteitag event....Interesting as this event was cancelled with the outbreak of the war. This example is a little better quality than most.
The 4th and last is a rank broach for the female RAD (RADwJ)... More a Commemorative Service badge for leadership. This falls more info the catagory of a medal/badge since it was a national, not local decoration.
Keep them coming....

Waleed thanks for your input too
Re: Newbie collector - unknown pins and badges HELP
First pin, veterans Gau Munster Gay Tag 1934 tinney..... Unfortunately not original, cast fake without provision for a pin. Junk.
2nd is DLRG (German Life Saving Organization) training "Ghundschein" stick pin.
3rd is "Princess Louisa Bund" members pin. If I remember right they were a charitable organization and supported the return of the Kaiser until Hitler came along....
4th is a "tinney" for the Turnverein Schafthaussen. The Turnverein was/is a athletic, social association.... Very pro-NSDAP at that time.... Still in existence today I believe.
