LOL, he just doesn`t want to appear in any more MMJ videosVery cool. Good work and good reaction from the dealer with the caveat that he had no choice once Jo pointed out his mistake in a way that could not be ignored

No, he doesn`t.. it`s all ra-ra. Price and description have not changed, and won`t either. The auction will run out as it is.Great work Joe great to see some people listen too you

Great to see this document from my old friend Lothar, whom I met with
various occasions.
If the badge actually belonged to it, will remain a question!
But if someone would have a good one, I guess it would be Lothar.

At least ten (HJ) fakes of his in the upcoming auction...and I only briefly looked. Including stupid stuff like the fronts from HJ and DJ shooting badges put onto stickpins.
Thanks for confirming that the certificate is legit. First one I've seen.
Hi Wim
Nice pic from 1975 with you at Lothar Hartung, but who is who ?
I am interested, as I have known Lothar since early 1970's, but we have never met, only written an telephoned to each other. It would be nice to know how he looks.
Do you know when he died ?

The smaller guy with darker glasses is me; Lothar is standing next to me.
Both are looking into the camera. The guy in the yellow shirt is Angolia,
next too him his wife (also in yellow). Angolia lived then at Sindelfingen!
The last years I did not have contact with Lothar. I did not collect anymore,
so our contact lasted. I do not know when he died!

That's a good question actually. Detlev Ehlers was indeed the Landesjugendführer for Spain in 1941 when the document was signed but it is not clear from the certificate what badge was actually awarded. Could this recipient not just as well have received the normal HJ honour badge? Wim, do you know more about the background of Santa Marina's award i.e. is this definitely a Distinguished Foreigner award certificate? He died only five years after you attended that show so I'm wondering how you guys saw things back then.

Have no idea. I do not have more information.
The only thing I know is that Lothar had much contacts
and was known by many for his good HJ-collection.
Who died five years after I attended the show?

I cannot remember he told me about the document. It is too many years ago.
But he surely might have. I cannot check, as I do not have my old correspondence
anymore.

Emedals selling another, yet again.
