something a little different in relation to the VVO...patch from the Abteilung FilmAufbereitung in the Kombinat ORWO Wolfen (formerly and presently AGFA, the East Germn Camera film maker). Cheers, Torsten (ebay id German.Militaria).

Did this patch exist during the Cold War? I have not seen it before???Somebody, after all, had to make a start. What we wrote and said is also believed by many others. They just don't dare express themselves as we did. Quote - Sophie Scholl - White Rose resistance groupComment

to be honest, I had not seen it before I bought it either...the seller claims that his father worked in the factory and that he had a pack of these at home and they are being sold now...other than the word of the seller for it, I have no further info about this particular item. Cheers, Torsten.Originally posted by Ralph PickardComment

Torsten - Thanks for the information and background. It will be interesting to read what other members post.

Ralph, I could not imagine it to not be original...why would anyone fake such an obscure low value item? Also, if it was from the ORWO factory, then this would be a low volume, kind of like privately commissioned piece and you would not find any other comparable items...in any case, I would certainly be interested to hear from anyone, who would know where these are being made, if this is some kind of new item....as I would dearly love to talk to the guy who sold me the patch about this...;-)...Cheers, Torsten.Originally posted by Ralph PickardTorsten - Thanks for the information and background.
