Postwar Labels Of Wartime Makers

Oh, if you ever see a Railway hat with this design being sold as 1933-1945 vintage, run, don't walk (it is for the Bundesbahn):

I was looking for that Erel immediate postwar (1945-1948) logo--it was in the "Late-War Erel" thread--I'll also put it here, as it is one of the more important pw logos, especially as it is in celluloid:

I'm trying to clean out my hard-drive today--here are some more postwar labels of wartime makers (some are in celluloid)--

Postwar Ludwig Vogele (you will see this on PW forestry hats most often):

Another "Marie Slama" variation:

"Rekord"--this is celluloid:

"C. Louis Weber"--this is almost exactly the same as the wartime logo (and note this one is celluloid):

[stonemint]

Another "Rekord":
