In stock
-
Original Items: Only One Set Available. This is a very nice collection of German WWII Event badges, or "Tinnies", which was brought back from the European theater by a USGI after the war was concluded. Many solders traded these on the way back, and would end up with a pocket full of various different collectible items, and this set represents the typical "haul" one might have come back with.
This grouping contains the following Tinnies that we were able to identify:
- SEVEN REICHSPARTEITAG Tinnies, one from every year from 1933 to 1939. The Reichs Party Congress or Nuremberg Rallies were held yearly.
- TWO TAG DER ARBEIT Tinnies, dated 1934 and 1935. These were for the annual labor day celebration in NSDAP Germany.
- FOUR 1 MAI Tinnies, one from every year from 1936 to 1939. These celebrated May Day / Labor Day in NSDAP germany.
- One NSDAP House Of German Art Day Tinnie, dated 1933.
Please consult the pictures for further details on markings and condition.
A great little set that could be the start of your collection!
"Tinnies" (Veranstaltungsabzeichen - Event Badges) are small commemorative pins or medals, acquired when one attended a specific event held in Germany. They were often made of thin stamped metal, bakelite, or even pressed paper. Many of these were given out as part of the WHW (Winterhilfswerk - Winter Help Work) Organization, which often involved Germans traveling quite a bit to help out the war effort. Many others were given for the annual Reichsparteitag (Reich Party Congress), otherwise known as the Nuremberg Rallies.
