    Sorry to say but the Otto Hoffman badges are considered to be modern reproductions by many.

    I agree with Gefolgschaft, the Otto H ones are considered quite Polemic.

    Ok, thank you very much. I thought the front of this badge looks OK.
    It's to dark in my room, I tried to make a better photo to compare.

    Sven, Stu will know more than I do about the Otto Hoffman badges. I've seen posts by others that say there was no badge maker named Otto Hoffman.

    That's correct Darin. As you'll know, sjl over on WAF is very knowledgeable on the RZM and he has found no evidence to date that a company called Otto Hoffman ever had a contract to make HJ membership badges.

    In the fake section (Full members only) you will find all of the "colours" of from this maker... more than from the HJ, it looks like Teletubbies.

    Thanks to this forum I learnt my lesson over Otto H.

    Regards

    Hi Antonio, yes, I saw, but quality of the fakes is really poor. The quality of my badhe is much better!
    Here is a bad quality digicam photo of the 52.

    Regards,
    Sven.
