'Reichsarbeitsdienst der weiblichen Jugend' (or: RADwJ ie.: Womens Labor Service) so-called: 'Brosche für Arbeitsmaid' (or: membership-brooch) being a clearly maker- (ie. 'M.H.'-) marked and/or: '1937'-dated example

The attractive - and truly nicely preserved! - brooch (ie. 'RADwJ-Dienstbrosche') has an approximate diameter of 4,5 cms. and still retains stunning detail and comes of course mounted onto its functional pin and/or catch (set-up). The brooch - which is a light-weight version as was executed in neatly 'anodized'- ie. silver-toned and/or aluminium-based metal - is as stated a neatly maker- (ie. 'M.H.'-) marked and/or: '1937'-dated example that was (I deem) just moderately used- and/or worn: it was (I deem) never cleaned nor polished and retains a minimally tarnished age-patina, showing some normal age and/or staining. Next to the clearly present makers'-designation does the badge also bear a: 'Ges.Gesch.'-patent-pending and/or: 'RADJ-'-logo ie. marking (as can be seen on the pictures). A similar 'brooch' is also figured in the Heering-Hüsken 'Abzeichen'-catalogue, wherein it is given a unique reference-number (3806A) and given an estimated value of 70 Eu. I deem that this attractive RADwJ-brooch is accordingly priced!
