Re: The official, "unofficial", Party badge thread.
Hi Paul
Your Fritz Zimmermann badge is a beaut! It looks to be in exceptional condition also. I can completely understand personal reasons for not collecting this area of militaria/political items as I have personal family ties directly to the era. I'm glad you decided to start collecting as I have, and many others do, it's a way to keep history alive and educate our young.
While you are new to collecting, as I still am also, and speaking from limited experience, this hobby has its 'baptism by fire' learning curves. I have a number of fakes that I unknowingly bought and 1 fake that I knowingly bought. I'm sorry to say but your Deutschland Erwache is not an authentic piece, in my opinion. Reason is, this slogan badge was instituted prior to RZM control and therefore would not have such uniform lettering and the pin attachment is a style used later in the TR era. The circular guide on the badge itself would have been utilized also. Please don't take my word for it, post this badge by itself and have others, who have been doing this longer than I look at it. I hope this does not offend.
