DATABASE: THIRD REICH GAU & RALLY BADGES

#1

Post by Macmedal » 31 May 2003, 13:47

This week I have decided as explained to go for Gau & Rally Badges.

To clarify these are the official & adopted semi official badges not the Day Badges (tinnies) which will be subject of a later post.

Come on Guys the response to this thread compared to all the others is very poor. I am surprised considering the numbers of request I get for more political badges. Just to get yuo going again:

Again I am getting disappointed by the lack of posts on this thread there were a few votes for this one and yet Raz is the only one so far to contribute.

Very Poor :?

Good question;
However, I believe this particular picture in my file was a badge that was discussed a long while ago on this forum and the consensus at the time was that it was original. I'd be interested, as i am sure Nick would, to get further images for the forum of this type of badge, specially in view of it's rarity!
However, as i was recently looking at gau badges for sale I found one and thought I would post a couple of the pictures for a comparison. I give credit of the pictures to http://www.weitze.net who had this badge on their site.
