      An interesting piece for sure - never seen that before.

      A door plaque - perhaps.

      Could also be for the back of bigger official books and document folders.

        I thought I saw something like this on the Ruptured Duck website a long time ago. I can't remember what the description attributed this to.

          Bill Shea I'm sure wouldn't have this pos on his website; & Thorsten, your interpretation is just outstanding. IT IS A HUNK OF FAKE JUNK that was all over the place back in 1970's gun shows & flea markets. It is pictured on page 42 of the old WW#2 Products Ltd Catalog ( of their Fakes ), Box 2063, St. Louis, MO, as their item #60003 Nazi Brass Door Push Plate @ $16.oo.

                I thought people would appreciate seeing this innovative use of one of these on a fire extinguisher.

                    These fake door plates have also been in the UK for at least the past 30 years, sorry.

                        Morigi had them on his website for the longest time.

                          Agree--these are thought to have been produced in the UK, and they did start turning up in the 1970s. Fantasy item! Silesien--good for you that you kept your old WW#2 catalogues!

                            I've had mine for about 30 years. Impressive, but still junk. BTW, it's too thin for actual use as a door plate. It would get beat up in no time.

                              Indeed he has, and I seem to recall he had them in his old photocopied black and white posted catalogues as well. So they have been knocking around for a looooooooong time.
