Hi Jeff,

Well I knew of a Shuco addiction but getting hooked to Aurich is new for me.

You write "Almost" what are you still looking for?

Another PAB maybe

Coastal Artillery and Minesweeper are still missing as far as I can see.

Or maybe two mint ones

[Christopher G.]

Giel, not too often you see MINT Aurich badges.

[Chet Sowersby]

Giel,
That is a fine looking pair!

Very nice badges Giel! Personally I like the used not abused look, I even like the ground dug ones.

Yes, I need the KM versions before I can mark them "done".
Hopefully they will be somewhat easier then finding the Army Flak, especially in the shape its in.

Damn, its sad, everytime I have an opportunity to ball the "rare ball hinge variant" my hobby fund is out of $. One day...one day.....

What I’m finding rather interesting is number of HA made PAB’s. Especially if we will take in to the account that they weren’t in the production of PAB’s from the very beginning (at least I don’t know of existence of any HA PAB’s in BM) and they couldn’t possibly survive Dresden bombing (so they couldn’t produce them after bombing raids on February 13th and 15th of 1945). IMO, this is the easiest PAB to find on the market, so my best guess is that their production output was just tremendous…did anybody knows, how big HA Company was?

@Jeff – great collection.

Robert,
That is a fine looking bronze Aurich PAB.

Thanks Chet,

It looks like it came from the Hersheys plant rather than the Aurich.
