membership

Hello All, here is one that is not on the membership badge data base. It is marked M1/156 which I believe is made by the Austrian firm of Argentor Werke-Wien It is a little fractured on the enamel but it is the first one I have come across by this maker Doug

This pin had to be cleaned before any pics were taken. It was covered with BLACK 'tarnishing' of some kind. That is why it appears in the condition it does. Any and all opinions are appreciated. I tried to show the RZM and an apparent number of some kind ("721"?):confused1:. The gold colored...

Hi Guys,new member,and my first post here.I want to share with you my latest HJ Memberbadge.Opinions are welcomed..

Here are some of the items in my current HJ collection. I am almost ready to fill the Ikea tower to display the items. The belt and buckle was just purchased, this is the dealer's photo. But it recently arrived and is just as described (you can see it holding down the young man's...

Hi all, I wanted to share my membership info of this German young lady, complete with photo. I acquired it when I first started collecting HJ items, and it helped to spark my interest in the subject. I found it interesting that she has HJ membership, not BDM. But, I have come to understand...

Hello forum. Please would you comment on this badge. Im pretty sure its ok. The 4 is open as compared to the same maker on party badges which is a closed 4. I have looked at the example in this database and it looks nothing like it. May be a sub contract i just do not know. Any thoughts please...

Hello again, here is another badge that was in my old box. It is a Ges Gesch marked on the pin backplate DJ Badge in not the best of condition but I do believe it to be an original. All the best Doug

Hello All, so I am still plowing my way through a box full of badges that have been stored away since the end of '92. I have come across a few more youth organisation membership badges. This is one that was there. I do believe it to be a good example but in pretty poor condition. Any...

Hello All, here is a badge that was in a box along with a lot of other bits and pieces. After looking at Jo's epic work on membership badges. This one appears to have either. 1. had a replacement pin added or 2. Has a variant pin 3. Is a different die to that normally seen. 4. Is an old fake...

Hello All, I have this cut out design badge depicting the DJ symbol. Is this just a tinnie, WHW badge or a members badge? It is magnetic. Many thanks Doug

Hello All, here is another of my membership badges that has been languishing in the dark for too long so I thought I would pop some pictures on the site for review. If you note on the reverse the pin plate seems to be a tad too large and covers most of the M1/75 number. I do believe that this is...

This little chap was in a box of tinnies I had collected some years ago and it has lain in the dark for so long I thought I would bring it out for a bit of fresh air. I do believe it to be a good one but other opinions would be appreciated All the best Doug.

Have been told this is a old repo. youthman

I got outbid on Ebay at 30 Euro on this photo. But I still do not know what it shows for sure. :help: I thought it might be Boy Scout related since the fleur-de-lis (Lilie) and the woggle (Halstuchknoten). On the other hand I also see the very tip of a membership pin on the left breast pocket...

Up until which year, did Hitlerjugend members have to purchase their HJ membership badges? (After a certain date, the HJ membership badge was given to new members by the Formationsführer when they were accepted into the HJ) :w00t:
