My little family...

I am sure. The regulations were not always followed, plainly, despite what the Wehrmacht Award whacko crowd wishes to believe. Even though regulations were, at times, strictly enforced, same did not always have the desired effect.
The 1937 regulations, I think, phased out the silken embroidery, but I am sure such was not observed by some....
In any case, thanks for the nice pictures and best wishes for the growth of your collection. Bruex is not Colmar, is it?

Thank you Friedrich, unfortunately not.... a "123" Sta. tab would be great !

The things that are so near, yet so far....so much in our dreams and become the stuff of our nightmares.....

Nothing is ever simple about this junk, and plainly, such heartache adhered to it in the pre- May 1945 epoch, as well. The editor of the Mitteilungsblaetter must have been a total pita, frankly.

Thank you to Pascal and F.B for sharing their collections and for the insightful commentary from those and other members. Its a great help to new members such as myself that these threads re-emerge periodically and reveal a history of their own. Regards paul

Thanks for the kind words. We wish all beginners and not so beginners much good fortune in their quest.

The reflection here makes one realize how many years have been expended in the search for these things.
