    4 Tinnies

    Hello,

    found these tinnies in my 'old stuff box'. Any idea, any comments. I'm not into those at all and have no idea what they are.

      I'll take a stab at it

      Upper left: Schlageter Day tinnie (Albert Leo Schlageter, a French occupation troop-fighting Nazi martyr. The French executed him for sabotage during the Ruhr occupation. The Cross depicted on the tinnie is a representation of the monument the Germans put up to him. I don't think he was a Nazi himself, but he made good propaganda for the National Socialists).

      Upper right: Winter Relief Fund donation tinnie, this one from Gau Franken/Hesselberg, 1935. This one is missing it's pinback.

      Lower left: 1935 Labor Day (Tag der Arbeit) tinnie.

      Lower right: NSBO event tinnie. says roughly that in the future the aristocracy will spring from the efforts of the common laborer - "labor = aristocracy"...or "There will be from now on only one aristocracy, the aristocracy of work!" or something like that.

      These were all given in return for donations to different causes during one- or two-day events or festivals.

      Hope this helps.

        Thanks

        Ralph,

        thanks for your fast reply!

        Is there any collectors value into these? Since I don't collect tinnies, maybe I can make somebody happy. Any idea about the value?

          I'd go:

          $30-35 each for the Schlageter and the Hesselberg jobs if they had their pins. In this shape... ?? not much value. $10 maybe. $10 also on the Labor Day tinnie since the pin is cruddy. NSBO, $30. it's pretty nice looking.

          I have all four of these, coincidentally!

          By the way, I've a second opinion on the Hesselberg tinnie. The shape of the eagle and the flame made me think "WHW" at first. I think now it is not; rather another event tinnie for the NSDAP.

            Ralph,

            it says "Frankentag' which basically means day of the franks. I don't think that there was ever a pin attached which is really odd. But I don't know anything aaabout those anyway...
            I'm sorry that you have those already. Could have made you happy. Oh well..

            Thanks a lot for your help. I guess I put them back in the box.

              Dietrich, In this case the Frankentag refers to the Gau (district) Franken and the city of Hesselberg. I have never seen this pin as a casting it's usually just a hollow stamped tin pin.
