Interesting Red Cross Paper tinnie

[Mike Dunn]

First one I have had, Interesting Rot Kreuz heavy paper tinnie mounted on a piece of wire. Nice looking 1 1/2" round. Any thoughts on it and was it associated with the WHW? Mike

Hey Mike,

This motif was used by the DRK pre 1933...you will find a variety of paper flowers like this sold by the DRK.

We have a good dozen of these covered in our new book...but we don't have this one!

Did they use a can like this................

Hi Ron,

I actually was told that this can was used post war (May 1945). The early DRK can that I have is actually a rectangle that was hung in a wall.
