An odd lot

[Tom Y]

Here's a small group (not to scale) I picked up in a lot of Imperial stuff. I'm assuming the WHW armband is for a volunteer and the eagle (with real opal) is for donations, but what about the other 2? I've seen the HALT pin before but still don't know what it's for, and the blue shield is a complete mystery.

Tom, The Halt sign is also a WHW item it is one in a set of traffic signs sold to rasie money for them. Sorry no help on the shield.

[Ralph A]

Nope

Nothing here either on the little blue badge. it looks more like a membership badge than a tinnie or day badge.

Hi Tom

Could you please post a pic of the reverse of the blue schield?

Peter

Hi, Peter,
Here's the bowdlerized scan for eScam. As you can see, it's unmarked. It's very well made with a deep blue enamel on a stippled ground.

Hi again Tom

I´m not 100% sure but I think it´s a swedish NS membershield.
The pin´s dubbel-loop on the hinge is characteristic for
Sporrong&Co in Stochholm. Maybe some of the swedish
Forum members can help you as to what organisation it
belonged to.

Regards
Peter.

Thanks, Peter.
The enamel's almost nice enough to be Imperial

The blue and gold shield with swastika was the membership pin of the Swiss Volksbund. Heering and Hüsken have cataloged it as # U104e.

Thanks, Histaria. I don't imagine they're too common?

I think I'm in love with that arm band!

[Tom Y]

Jeez, Marvin, I'd never have guessed. If one of you other guys can give me a cash figure maybe I can reunite these lovebirds

My ID of record is wildman12, but it's been monitored ever since the Hitler's Nose Hair auction, so I signed up with a second ID that's only available on request. BTW, my inbox is empty now

WOW! That was FAST! LOL! Marvin
