Luftschutz-Ehrenzeichen 2. Stufe - Förster & Barth (10) and Katz & Deyhle (60)

[spunkmaja]

Hi,

To my knowledge there are only two identified makers of the Luftschutz-Ehrenzeichen 2. Stufe; Förster & Barth (10) and Katz & Deyhle (60). Both are of the heavy type 25,56 and 25,79.

If anyone have information related to other known makers I would be interested to learn.


These are my two examples.

Both examples are very nice Jonas. Thank you for sharing them.

Besides that two makers of the luftschutz ehrenzeichen second class, there is lightweight luftschutz ehrenzeichen made in aluminium, like that one example below, but I do not know who is producer of that piece though and that lightweight variant should be always unmarked as far as I know.

Are there also unmarked varients of the heavy type? I'm after one myself at some stage

[Franjo Vuk]

Yes, there are unmarked examples of heavy type.

Franko, looks like your aluminum medal is different from mine. Maybe it is the picture but the "1938" looks different, especially the "1".

Very nice specimen Jonas.

It is not mine, this aluminium piece is currently for sale on militaria plaza, and I agree with you Jonas, it is definitely different than your example.

Best regards,
