I work with a fellow who is a master 3 way trader and as such is always coming up with interesting stuff of all sorts. Those of you familiar with coins may know him, Colin Bruce. Last week he handed me a small collection of Saxon Veterans Assoc. badges that was collected by town name. Colin thought some of you might find these interesting and asked me to share them with you. The older ones are solid brass and marked "GLASER & SOHN DAMPFPRAGANSTALT DRESDEN-A BORNGASSE 3". The newer ones are thin sheet metal stampings some of which are marked "GLASER & SOHN DRESDEN" and others are unmarked. They seem to come with two ribbon variations but the more solid color ribbons may be unofficial replacements as these medals were proudly worn for a long time.
