German WWII Militaria & Propaganda
Commemorative – tin- (ie. linnen-) based ‘tinnie’ being a maker- (ie. ‘Kruse & Söhne’-) marked example depicting a ‘sunburst’ with swastika and text that reads: ‘Kundgebung Sängergau Westmark – Saarbrücken 1936’The attractive – and most certainly unusually seen! – day-badge (ie. ‘tinnie’ or: ‘Veranstaltungsabzeichen’) is executed in silver-toned- (ie. ‘rimmed’) tin-based metal (having a linnen-based inner-section) and depicts an illustration of the device of the ‘Deutsche Sängerbund’ with swastika, surrounded by and below with the text: ‘Kundgebung Sängergau Westmark – Saarbrücken 1936′ and was as such intended- ie. issued for a DSB-related gathering, held in the year 1936. The badge – that shows some normal wear and/or moderate age and that shows the makers’-designation: ‘Kucke Mal – Ges.Gesch. – ‘Kruse & Söhne’ – comes naturally mounted onto its functional pin- ie. catch set-up and has never been cleaned nor polished: it shows some minimal staining (as can be seen on the pictures) but is still very detailed and/or pronounced. The centre of the ‘tinnie’ is truly nicely woven (by a technique similar to the ‘BeVo-weave’-pattern, as can be seen on the pictures). Simply an attractive – and unusually seen! – ‘tinnie’ that is accordingly priced!
