    Detlev Niemann's Catalog & Price Guide 1871-1945 is like the Bible! It is available on his website.

    German Combat Badges of the Third Reich by Tucker & Previteira is nice and has sweet color pics. Available at Bender publishing.

      Tony,

      For EKs etc Gordon Williamson book "The Iron cross of 1939" if you buy direct from Bender being a member here you will get 20% of the price.

      I hope this is of help?

        I agree .. this is the bible as far as EKs and Knights Cross material goes. Previtera also has released "The Iron Time" which has TREMENDOUS color pics of EKs from 1813 to 1957. Almost all pics in color from cover to cover.

        Forman's Guide to Third Reich German Awards and their Values (Vol. 2) is not a bad reference either.

        They can be found here:

        Or here:

            Before you commit to anyone to purchase anything, try Jack @ Volume Control...it might save you some serious money

              Just as a note ...

              1. Volume 2 of the German Combat Badges of the 3rd Reich (Luftwaffe + ?) is due out in 2005 sometime. Vol 1 covers Heer and Kriegsmarine Badges only.

              2. Frank H. will soon have some books out also. See attached thread:
