Mystery items - well they are a mystery to me for the moment

[ouroux71]

Hello Everyone,

I'm new to the forum and fairly new to collecting.

I wish to post images of three items I purchased this morning at a militaria sale in my village. I know they should be in a category but I'm not sure exactly what I purchased.

Can someone give me a clue what they are called and 'if' they might be real?

Item 1. A cloth patch which I believe is real - paid 15€

Hi there.

I can't help with authenticity, but I think it is insignia for the The National Socialist Motor Corps (Nationalsozialistisches Kraftfahrkorps) NSKK.

Kind regards,

Thanks Will. I thought it too simple and too simply fabricated to be a repro item. Keep an open mind on objects even if not the from the well known badges and patches..

I like it. The more obscure patches and badges are as much fun as the common ones. The thrill of the find, one might say.

Even more thrill of the chase when you are not sure and find it's something a lost and obscure... I enjoyed my morning of purchases...

Hello, I found this thread while researching this NSKK drivers early sleeve diamond. This is the only thread that features a red embroidered tongue. Here’s mine. I believe it to be an origional. I welcome all comments. Best, Bill

Thanks Bill. Your example is very fresh. Funny that they chose this little touch of red..
