    Who made the first party pin?

    Since i became a collector of party pins I like to know which Munich juweller designed en produced the first NSDAP party pins. In an old Flemmisch translation of "Mein Kampf" Hitler mentioned the man "Füsz" as the maker of the first prototypes. Maybe is "Füsz" a spellingmistake for "Feuss", the maker of the small GPB?
    I have tryed to contact (very polite) some Munich Juwellers with that specific name but they didn't response at any way.

    Is there someone luckier out there who can help me?

    Sorry for my Englisch writing

    J. Fuess in München was one of the more important early Jewelry/medal manufacturers for the NSDAP--they created the Blood Order dies for example.

      That's true. That's why I pressume that he must be the first. Has anyone search the name in an original German version of "Mein Kampf" to check out the name?

      I also contact Mr Tucker for this question. He recently wrote a magnificant book about those pins. But he diden't now the answer

        There is a well known letter from the Reichspatentamt to Josef Fueß from 1920. It contains a few drawings, including one which looks like the Parteiabzeichen.

        As far as I know this origin of the party badge. So if Fueß made the design, he was for sure the first maker.

        I'm a little bit surprised that somebody writes a book about this subject and he doesn't know this?!? Are you sure that you didn't misserundstood him?

          Many thanks for this info, Christian. This is what I hoped to find; that someone could confirm that Feuss made the first party pins.

          And yes Mr Tucker could not help me. Still he has made a fantastic book, but it isn't an indept study of the NSDAP pin. It shows lots of high quality photographs of the different makers. Whit information of the metals they used and the fixation of their safety pins. The book is based on three specific periods: Early years, transistion years and rzm years. Is their anyone else who ever have tried to contact the Feuss familie?

          Thanks to Erich an Christian
