Hi lacky...?
......I didn't know that AS in triangle had been confirmed as Adolf Scholze. Can you tell me how you came into that surprising bit of information?

Hi Pavel
......I really appreciate you pointing to the old thread. I vaguely remember it. It is a great read, and makes a good case for AS in triangle being the logo for Sholze. I'm not totally convinced, but I like the evidence gathered so far.
Since Gablonz was in the Czech Republic.....was Scholze's firm a Czech owned company?
The reason I ask is that if so it could put to rest statements made in the past that ONLY German companies were allowed to produce Third Reich badges/awards, or anything related to that period.
Reagrds,
Bruce
