It would be nice to know how many of the LDO numbered companies are still alive?

On the window it says it is a source for badges, honour prizes and orders. Maybe he makes Verdienstorden for the Austrian Government, the way Steinhauer and Lueck do for the BRD. Cheers, CB.
The manufacture & selling of 3d Reich medals & badges at the Souval firm, which was just a side-line of the overall Souval production, was the brainchild of the elderly Director, Herr Ludwig Umlauf. When he passed on, the nephew took over the firm, & had no interest nor desire at all to continue the production of Nazi items, that's why the making/selling of their Nazi stuff abruptly stopped, in the mid 1980's. Their sales listing had a total of 398 decorations, & even included a few belt buckles.
I would be very interested in purchasing Souval's post war cataloques - even photocopies

I want to keep my remaining original, but will begin to make a copy of it. It's 30 pages, & the front page has their blue & red logo, with their "RS" design also, & their address, etc. Will contact you when I get it all copied.
What you could do to get everybody their copy would be to scan the pages to the website and then whoever wants a copy can copy and paste it to a document and either print it or keep it stored OR create a zip file and store it there. Just an idea! What is the cost of a photocopy?
I don't have a scanner. Will check today with printing store to see about cost. I was going to use my wife's copier at her business to run off 2 or 3 copies, but if I start running off 10 or so copies, she'll boot me out of the store. I'll be back.
