SS-zivilabzeichen Otto Gahr

[Wim Vangossum]

Hi everyone,


I was wondering how many people on this forum are member of the Otto Gahr SS-Zivilabzeichen community? So if you got a Gahr please show it here. I believe the record was 4 examples in one collection! Anyone do better? I bought my one and only unnumbered piece in 2010.


Regards, Wim

Nice Wim but sadly the one that I once had in my collection now resides with another collector.

[J. Wraith]

The record is higher I'm sure and I've had about 5 of them but none currently.

5 pieces and you sold them all ?

Yes, I'm fickle but I know there is a guy with more than 4.

Several pins AND original red Gahr box. Seiler

Rather a "poor" box/case for a prestigious Jeweler Seiler

Hi Wim,Maybe my tired old eyesbut do I see "ghosting" of erased numbers on your pin??? or an optical illusion? Expand the pic and look closely!!!Seiler

[Wim Vangossum]

Seiler and Sipo you're both Lucky b***** to have a cased example.


Seiler you could be right, there is something visible on the top of the badge

The type of box those pins are housed in sometimes, had nothing to do with Gahr per se. They were a generic type cases, produced during the period, also used by Gahr, that with a little bit of luck you can still find on ebay for literally few Euros.
Mine had a red cross stickpin in it and cost me 19.95. No, the red cross pin was not made by Gahr.

cheers
