WW1 German Red Cross badge?

**edelweiss123** · 02-25-2013, 08:53 PM

Hi everyone, i have recently bought this lot of items. I know the majority are british red cross and not german....

However, im after info on the VFV badge on the bottom row.

From my bit of research i can find that it is a national woman organization of the Red Cross (VFV), military service badge 1914.

These are unfortunately the only pics i have for the moment.

What do you guys think?

Any info is great, ta

Cheers Glenn, are these quite common items?

They're not rare, friend....and not terribly high on the desirability scale in my opinion. However, I see them sell for around $45.00 on Ebay...
cheers, Glenn

Thanks Glenn, that's great. I paid £40 for the lot, and as i also collect British Red Cross stuff, i'm really happy. I just wasn't familiar with that one badge.
