Three of a kind

[DUJAILAH]

Hi Chaps, I thought I'd start this thread for a bit of fun. One of my favourite parts of collecting is when themes pop up within collections. With this in mind here's a couple groups of 'Three Of A Kind' (like the old T.V. show) that I noticed in my collection.

First up, 3 Hermann Aurich's of Dresden.

The top is 1942 dated on the tab with the H.A. monogram & 42 on the body.

The other 2 have the H.A. monogram & 43 on the body.

Anybody else with 'Three Of A Kind' out there?

Cheers,

Richard.

Next up, here’s three with the same body; but different maker tabs: -

Top: - SCHMOLE & COMP., MENDEN – 1936
Middle: - SCHMIDT & CO. K.G., SCHWELM – 1937
Bottom: - DRANSFELD & CO., MENDEN - 1937

Richard, Aurich is actually my most favorite maker of Heer buckles, they display such character

Hi Ben, they have a very distinctive eagle. Like you said real character!! Did you recognise one of your former charges?

[DUJAILAH]

Ben, did they do an aluminium buckle?

The Aurich symbol was under the roller bar
