Tinnie Question??

[Z19]

Are any of the tinnies that look like Division Standartes better than others value wise? Thanks, Alex

Hello Alex, without actually seeing them I presume you are referring to the plastic standartes from the WHW - winterhilfswerk series (winter helps work) is that correct?

Hi Martin, these are the type I'm talking about. Alex

Hello Alex, yes these are the plastic standartes from the WHW - winterhilfswerk series (winter helps work) there is actually 20 in the complete set. They do not have a great commercial value and from my perspective are worth approx £10 each (many collectors and Dealers rate them at even less), their construction is kunstoff, which is an early form of plastic (not bakelite) You can find reference to them in the Harry Rosenberg book - Spenden Abzeichen Des WHW. This is a pre Reinhard Tieste publication and long out of print. I have sent imgaes from the book to give you abetter idea.

I love these flag tinnies!

On average, i have been paying $5-$10 usd each for these from other collectors. I'm always looking for those that I don't have.

Here is a pic of my collection so far:
