ok, this one does not need much explanation, I suppose, I know what Hitler and Coburg are, but still any comments are welcome.

writing on this one is harder to read in the photo, seller tells me it says "N.S. flugtag - Bayreuth - Wagnerfestspiele - 1933"Last edited by Vadim K; 03-04-2003, 11:52 PM.Comment

Budulai, You have three very nice early Nazi Party Day badges. They are not what one would call common. I couldn't find the first one in any refferance books I have but the second and third ones are in Tieste's tinnie book. Very nice finds you have a lot of tinnie collectors drooling right now.

James, thanks!
On the first one, what does "Bezirkstag" mean?
Also, the third one does not look like a Party Day badge, it looks like a badge for some kind of air show (from what I see with my limited German
)??
I do not have these yet, I need to make an offer. What is a good price for these? (the seller has no idea as to what they are or what their value is
)

Hello Vadim.
Bezirks is "District". So, Lobenstein (NSDAP) District Day.
The third one is indeed a flying competition badge, held during the annual 1933 Wagner Festival in Bayreuth.
This music festival was one of Hitler's favorites. He was a guest of Frau Wagner during these.
Nice tinnies. The early party ones (as in the first picture) have a very distinctive flair about them.
I'd say $100+ (USD) for the first one.
$70 for the second and $80 for the third.
PS: that is their "value" as a dealer would set it, but what you decide to offer is another matter.

Budulai, Ralph is right now as to dealers prices. What makes the third one a Party sanctioned badge to me is the title N.S. Flugtag. which to me says National Sozialistische Flying day also the use of the early National emblem.Comment

Thanks, guys, I had no idea they were worth that much. I think the seller is thinking along the lines of $50-60 for the 3 of them...
Here is one more she has, this one says NSDAP Thuringen, 1925-1935. Is this one worth picking up too?Comment

Yes sir get them all the last one is more common but well worth getting.Comment

and what exactly is this last one?Comment

Party Day celebration
1935. Celebrating the 10th annual party day in Turingen. "Wiederkehr!"
See if she'll throw it in if you take the other three.
....who did you say "she" was?

a woman... No, wait, what am I saying, with tinnies like that... she is a LADY....
All right, lets see if I can pull this off. I'll ask what she wants for them before my offer, she might let them go for $30, you never know... I'll keep you guys posted.
Thanks again for the help.

Vadim, the first three tinnies are very nice early badges and also very scarce. Ralph has a pretty good handle on the retail prices. The fourth is relatively more common and would retail in the $20 to $30 range. Good luck!
