Mothers cross appreciation thread....

[AUSGANG]

Here are two denazified examples... I like the way the "sunburst" was removed on the right hand one...

Whats the point on removing the sunburst?
Poor cross it feels naked..

I actually like it, of course it's a destruction of a good cross but the job is nicely done and more importantly it shows the two holes in the centre for attaching the disc.

Nice pics

Undoubtedly interesting subjects. But the cross with a rare inscription is a pity to me: with a letter "b". Very badly that the cross is spoiled.
Yours faithfully Kostantin.

New miniature in my German Mother crosses...
Yours faithfully Konstantin.

[KOSTEN]

I will update a theme, and something for a long time anybody of new mothers didn't show that...
1. New miniature in gold L/57...


2. Only bronze miniatures...


3. My friend with whom my hobby for awards and mothers in particular has begun, spoke that I badly do that I do not buy documents. Later 2 years I have grown to them. So I brag - the first document in my collection:

Yours faithfully Konstantin.

Here is a curious relic, a triangular divot to correctly place the swastika... I thought that twin holes were used as in post 361?

Tough life that one had. I would imagine that different attachment methods
would be like hardware attachment methods, different from maker to maker. I haven't seen too many without their discs, but could be a lot of different methods of attachment out there. Just a guess, though
the one next to the "two hole" cross is a central single hole.

There are many many different ways...

On my documents of date:
12.24.1940 - typewritten
05.21.1939 - typographical
10.01.1939 - a typographical writing
I can show a photo. But me the question - why more occupies some dates typewritten, and others of a typographical writing?
There's more: Why some documents are signed "Fuhrer", and others "the Fuhrer and Rejhskantsler"?
Yours faithfully Konstantin.

After the massive numbers were handed out in may 1939 still not all women who were entitled a cross were given one. Extra dates were 1 october (Erntedankfest) and 24 dec (X-mas), for these dates many citationes were printed, also many without a date. Some overstock of these were used in later years with a typed date. Around 1942 came a second type of citation in use: the one with the eagle, but because of overstock in many cities, the old ones were also still used. I have of both types citations from 1942, 1943, 1944 and have also seen them for 1945 (!).


There is alot more to say on this but lately everything i type on the forums ends up elsewhere. If no one mins ill a bit more to myself for the book.

best regards,
