Two Karl badges ! M1/6 Karl Hensler and M1/34 Karl Wurster .
First time poster. Whew.... this was a looooong thread with a lot of info to sink in. I'm super impressed. You guys are the best reference resource I have been able to find. Does the collective have a recommended/trusted dealers for these? I was looking at a couple of sponsor sites and saw pins I would like to purchase, but even those differ from the examples on this thread that have been authenticated as legitimate. I have to err on the side of skepticism in such a treacherous market.
Example ( WW2 German nazi - waffen SS original - NSDAP Membership Badge RZM 13 L. Christian Lauer, Nürmberg )
There are multiple other examples of a Lauer badge posted here, but none look like this one. Please advise.
Transitional Lauer parteiabzeichen .. this badge was produced around 1933-35 before the M1/13 prefix we see on later Lauer badges. Genuine and nice badge . If you are interested in TR badges , Jo Rivett’s “The Party Badge “ book is the bible on badges. Good luck !
Well , it’s about on par with reference books from B&D Publishing . Not sure if they have any copies for sale but Jo has a few left on the website . 150 chf ( Swiss francs ) ... as I said , worth every penny if enamel-badges are your field of interest.

Hello and welcome to the forum of knowledge
Sadly they are a product of the 4th Reich and are not period items
Thanks for the reply, imagine brought all the way back from Europe .. On top of that supposedly from a very good friend of a friend. Lesson learned ! Now I am worried about the other pieces , a couple daggers and pins. I will try and find the proper section to post those . Again, thanks ..
