I am with Michael on this one. Wooden plates are not fake proof. I have seen these at various militaria exibits and do not think for a minute that these are all genuine (especially the ones with the three horse heads forming a trifos). I have a fairly recently carved Irminsul myself and considering that in Bavaria-Austria wood carvings are still quite popular it does not take much to replicate some runes on wooden plates (the latter are still made without a shadow of a doubt). As for woodcarving styles, sure these differ throughout the decades but anyone who wants to recreate the rustic and robust TR style should have no problems doing so. This also happened with some china pieces that were made old style after the war for some of the old comrades that came together for veteran meetings.

That´s exactly right!
It´s all a matter of development and personal experience.
The one with the three horse heads does exist as a period and original piece and I even know the maker of that one (there is one original on UlricofEngland´s website) - I thought that the one shown here is so obviously new/fake for everybody to see that there would be no need for any discussions whether it´s period or not.

In the read band: Einer für Alle - Alle für Einen = One for all - all for one.
At the top: Genossenschaftskasse = Cooperative Fund
I am not getting too excited about the sign, think it's coming from a local farmer's cooperative.
Thanks for the translation!! I appreciate you taking the time to look a it..

I am not good regarding these technical details - maybe I can send the pic to someone that can help me out?
By the way: the building is the half timbered house standing in opposite to the SS village community house (Otten´s Hof) in Wewelsburg and belonged to the local carpenter Saake who did a whole lot of the wooden furniture and interieur in Wewelsburg castle - together with the SS-architect Walter Franzius.
The shown part with the runic/pagan decoration has been developed by Franzius as well and has been built in 1936 as Saake´s own sales and show room for his furniture and other wooden items made in the style of Deutsches Heimatwerk.
