Hello. I've bought the following items at least 15 years ago at a German flea market. I have forgotten about them but now they poppt up again. I have no idea what period and what type they are. Perhaps someone can enlighten me.
The grey wings are marked "Ges. Gesch.".
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards, Matthias -
Matthias,
Most of the lot is postwar "DeutscheBahn" buttons and insignias....but late 40s/early 50s. The collar tab devices and some of the insignia are, or are the same as, the 3rd Reich versions...the red Cross device may go in the center of the hat wreath (?), the Lion hat cockade is definate postwar (Thurigen), the Drivers patch would be some RARE SS insignia in some hands....(not of course)
Actually a nice collectible lot....the winged wheel pins would certianly be considered 3rd Reich, most of the rest collectible in it's own right for what it really is!
Hope that helps....sorry about the lack of Euro. "umlats" but "link" wouldn't open for me....I tried....

PS. Just looked again...the more "modern" style winged/wheel devices are definately "D.B.", the finer detailed one are "same as" 3rd Reich devices....but were worn Postwar into the early 50s....Comment

Can someone help me to identify the following patch? It is believed to be a drivers patch. Couldn't find anything in my reference books.
