very creative with an EK1

[ascot]

hi guys,

would like to show this EK1 attached on a quite strange place... a beer mug.
have a look at the pics. could it be an original EK1?
The mug also has some other 'features'...like the eagle of an observer badge? and some lw rank eagles... (glued on)

Thanks

The EK1 is casted.

Too bad...

Would be interesting if someone did it put an original one on a beer glass ;-).

It is simply a curiosity and not cross

If we're showing items that utilize the iron cross, here's a carved item from Bizerte, Tunis most likely made for the occupying Germans...Its a real, worn Souval EK though so who knows the story...

looks like a +/1 10 year celebration of a Obergefreiter.

enlisted exactly 1 month after the breakout of ww2.

The dates on the disc are curious. It meant something to someone at one time. lost story.
