I know this item is not Wehrmacht era, but I kind of do not think it really fits into the Imperial Forum, but if Moderators think it more appropriate to move it there, then of course please feel free to do so ... anyhow, here we go: I got a postcard, which was issued by the Bund der Deutschen in Niederoesterreich and it carries a donation stamp for 2 Mark issued by the Deutscher Schaffer-Bund and that stamp has a large swastika on it, but the card was postally used and it has a postal cancellation from 1913. I did not think that the swastika was used by German national organisations that early on??? does anyone know any more about this or about the Deutscher Schaffer-Bund?
With the card came a painted enamel stickpin, which looks like it was issued by the Deutscher Turnerbund or the Deutsche Turnerschaft. Does anyone know if or how this stickpin may be related to either the Bund der Deutschen in Niederoesterreich or the Deutscher Schaffer-Bund?
Any suggestions and help are more than welcome
Cheers, Torsten.
PS: I will also post a similar question in the paper forum.
First pick up is the front of the card...nothing too special here
