    Deutsches Feld-Ehrenzeichen

    A couple of new additions to my Imperial collection.
    I really like the design of this award.

          A very nice pair, especially with the award certificate.

          Interestingly, "Levy" is a typically Jewish surname. I wonder how the poor fellow fared over the following years?

            That's what I was thinking too! He got the award in 1934, when nazis were already in power. So the history lectures that nazi party took control over veteran organisations even before they came to power are not completely true. Or is this something with "red" working class Hamburg?

                    Nice looking set Ralph
                    I really like the stick pin. Great detail for such a small item.

                            one of the last of these to be awarded/sold as they were banned the next year. Also, according to Arndt-only 160,000 were awarded.

                              Thanks very much for that "little" bit of interesting information!
