I think the percone who has it allready passed away, due one of the papers said that he beginns as scholar in the embroidery firm in 1928 year, so, at least he was 17 years old... I will scan in details useful information, as there also contains information about such a rare insignia as a FP and GFP, also the time spent to making uniforms " Ergaenzung fuer Uniformtarifs",
seller did not have a time to give me a chance to look at all the papers he have, but this autumn I will visit him again, and will look carefully.

And for today is noone from the firms which was made threads/embroidery in Weissenburg is alive today. Newest ugly machines has changed good old traditions
