It look like some sort of tinnie. I've not come across this particular one before but I'm fairly confident it would've been sold as a fund raiser in the Schwarzwald(?) region.

Thanks

Thanks For the info.

The glass Hitler ornament is a WHW trinket-one in a series of famous German leaders. The WHW was a Winter relief organization, of course. They had endless series of donation trinkets of all kinds,shapes and forms. A shame he's chipped, but alot of the Hitler one's got ill treatment after the war,of course. Don't know about the helmet plate-not familiar with one with the cross on the chest like that, but some one like Oradour, no doubt, can tell you more about it.

Thanks so much William, do you know the year these were produced?

The 'Hitler Trinket' is a National Street WHW collection piece. It is from a series of 20 famous Germans. If it was in good condition it would bring $15-$20 in my opinion...in it's current shape maybe $5.00. This series was sold on the 1st & 2nd of March 1941 during the RSS drive.
The tinnie is from the Gau Baden area and is from the KDF (Strength Through Joy) Organization. I would say another $10-$15 piece.
Hope this helps,
Chrys
Thanks So much Guys for your help!

Ryan...it looks to be a perfectly original M1891 Wappen, having screw post attachment at rear, it is for Prussian Reserve other ranks, with its "Landwehr" cross in the centre, can not comment on the TR items.....a bargain at $60 !
Prost ! Steve.
