Reichspartietags - Are they Real?

[Karabast]

I am kinda new here and am not sure if this is the right forum. Also I am very new to collecting so I appreciate your insights.

I obtained a couple Reichsparteitags. The first one is from 1936 and the other is from 1939.

The 1936 tag weighs about 17 grams and is not magnetic. The 1939 one weighs 7 grams and is magnetic. I'm not sure if that is helpful to know.

Here are 3 views of the 1936 tag.

Here is the 1939 tag.

They are both original, no issues at all!

Excellent! How do you know? Through experience or is there a resource you used to compare things that I should get?

Normally these badges are not faked because there are still hundreds of thousands of them. Up to a million of these badges were certainly produced and issued at each party congress. Hundreds of thousands of people took part each time. On the other hand, of course, it is experience, I myself own such badges, from all party congresses.

Very nice and original Tinnies.

There are some great reference books that discuss Tinnies.

Here is a link to the Forum Reference Library with information about some of the books available.

Third Reich Tinnies/conference and event badges/WHW, HJ, SS, NSDAP, May Day, Gau Tag, ect.

The 1939 Rally never happened but tinnies etc were produced. The reason was that Germany invaded poland and WWII started.
The 39 rally was called the Rally of Peace.
