  • Original Items: Only One Set Available. This is a very nice collection of German WWII Insignia, Tinnies, and a Belt Buckle, 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.


    It includes a wide variety of items, including a Gendarmerie Rural Police collar tab, an aluminum injection molded Heer Army Belt Buckle, an early pattern signals enlisted shoulder strap, a National Socialist Women's League dress pin, and a wide variety of event pins & tinnies. Please consult the pictures for further details.


    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.
