Third Reich stick pins

[thecyclist64]

Hi everybody, apologies if this is the wrong part of the forum, I'm sure I'll get my backside kicked.

My question is, can anybody recommend a good book on collecting stick pins of all types from the Nazi era?

My friend has just got into collecting these things.

Thank you in advance

Yes you need the Husken book. It has a lot of flaws and mistakes but is the most comprehensive book that I know of. It doesn't go into great detail and some photo's are lacking but it lists just about every obscure pin out there.

I have used it to help me navigate through this !

That's a fantastic collection of pins Aldo. Love the Uboat pins

Is there anyway of determining the makers of the Uboat pins ? Are any marked ?

These are not marked, some of my crosses, flags and spange miniatures do have maker marks
