    This is the type of HJ-buckle I always enjoyed pretty much. When collecting I
    did own two.
    According to the "Verordnungsblatt der RJF" officially only three concerns were allowed to do this altering: for Gebiet 1-9 this was Assmann; for Gebiet 10-17 this was Dicke and for Gebiet 18-26 this was Overhoff. The changing had to be done during the months March and April 1938.

    Cracking information there Wim, so I would pressume that they would have used there own roundels for the conversion? So in theory if the roundel is a Assmann one they did it?

    Hello Ben,

    about the three manufacturers and more about HJ buckles I wrote an extensive article in two parts
    for the US-magazine "Military Advisor" (Hitler Youth Belts & Brocades, 1926-1945). Winter 2000/2001 and spring 2001. Another article about HJ buckles I already had published years before that (July 1922) in the German magazine "Militaria".

    From Overhoff I know from various interviews, they got the order for the converting and changed a lot of buckles. Of course they used their own 'insets". That will also have done by the other manufacturers. The guys from OLC I did speak with could not remember of they did have enough insets at that moment. When not, they said, they surely will have asked "be friended manufacturers" for the needed insets (Fr. Linden, W.Deumer etc.).
    Much of the soldering was done by homeworkers, as they always helped out where and when needed. So, who can tell by what manufacturer the soldering is done?
