    On a rainy day in Berlin...

    Popped over to Berlin last week, raining, windy and i got wet, found nothing of interest on the markets...until the last stall selling boxes of rubbish that even a rubbish collector would turn his nose up at.. and then this photo looked back at me from inside a wet box and said... i only cost 1 Euro! tough decision

              Hi its a NSDAP eagle on diamond shaped cloth, the photo is of a NSDAP Zellenwart(cell warden) this is an early photo from 1932-33 and "Tempelhof" is written to the reverse, South Berlin..here is a close up of his insignia from Jeff Clarks book.. Sean

                  when I see a picture like this, I can't stop thinking to myself:
                  "What happened later with this man, did he survive the war.."

                    His sleeve diamond is right where his armband should go. I bet he got a reprimand for that.
