Tinnie ID

[KC1]

I could use some assistance in identifying these 2 particular tinnies. I cannot find reference in any of the books I have or the search tool on this forum.
Thanks!


The first is a green shield tinnie with a large swastika with the wording, "DER FUHRER IN KOLN 28.3.1933" on the top end of the swas and below the swas it states, "FREI IST DER RHEIN". I do not yet have the backside photo of this tinnie but should have earlier this upcoming week.

This second tinnie, again I do not have in hand yet, but hopefully someone may have this in their collection with the history and whether or not it is a common tinnie. THANKS

[KC1]

and here is the reverse - again, thanks for any assistance!

The 2nd is a NSDAP tinnie given for the NSDAP- Kreisabschnittstreffen (Kreis Section Gahering) in Thüringen 15 May 1938.

"Für Ehre und Freiheit - für Arbeit und Brot" is the German inscription.
"For Honor and Freedom - for Labor and Bread".

Hello Gerdan,

Thanks for the quick reply and the information on this piece. Any idea on how common this one might be?

The first tinne was given in memery of the 28 March 1936 when Hitler together with Goebbels and Hess made a visit in Köln (Cologne) because short time, (only some days) before the Rheinland was freed from the French occupation after WWI and 7th March the German army entered the Rheinland and doing this they violated the Pact of Versaille.
