Re: Enamel III Reich Signs
Nice examples, Horst! I've also been looking at the "Hier spricht die NSDAP" signs but I still can't help but being confused over what actually signifies an original over a reproduction. I actually saw another of the wooden/paper type recently but it had already sold... hope more people will share their TR enamel signs!
Re: Enamel III Reich Signs
I know i cant prove this to be from the TR era but it was given to me by a Polish friend, he said his father found it while working in the late 40s at an ex Kriegsmarine base on the Baltic. It's maker marked Gustav Hermann Berlin SW 60. If the moderator thinks it shouldn't be here please remove.
Re: Enamel III Reich Signs
Nice signs. I have a 'Hier spricht die NSDAP' too, but it was found in a river and is not in as good condition as yours.

Martin - I have one of the "Hier Spricht Die NSDAP "sign that was cut in half after the war and one half was used to close up a window - you can see it at the foot of the Police fella - Also in the left corner is a "Feuerschutz" Polizei metal flag that they used when in action - I lost the metal pole when shipping the whole thing from Germany to USA, it fell out of the shipping crate.
