Superb - and unusually found! - HJ- (ie. Hitlerjugend-) related 'tinnie' (ie. 'Tagungs- o. Veranstaltungsabzeichen') showing a pair of ski's, 'Edelweiss' and HJ-'Raute' coupled with the text: 'Mannschaftslauf - Hitlerjugend - Nesselwang - 1935/36'

This is an attractive - and with certainty very scarcely found! - so-called: HJ- ('Hitlerjugend'-) related day-badge or 'tinnie' (ie. 'Tagungs- o. Veranstaltungsabzeichen') depicting a detailed illustration of a pair of crossed ski's, 'Edelweiss'-flower and HJ-'Raute' coupled with the text: 'Mannschaftslauf - Hitlerjugend - Nesselwang - 1935/36' and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit issued- ie. I deem just moderately worn-), condition. The somewhat smaller-sized and oval-shaped piece is executed from slverish-toned- (ie. I deem tin- ie. 'Eisenblech'-based) metal and is (as more often) totally void of a makers'designaton or alike. The piece is as mentioned above executed in typical, silverish-coloured metal: it shows some normal wear and/or moderate age but has not been cleaned nor polished (it is still a bit dirty but has maintained a nice, minimally darkened- ie. tarnished, age-patina and holds almost all of its period-apllied finish). The smaller-sized piece (having an approximate height of only 3 cms.) comes naturally mounted onto its functional pin- ie. pin/catch set-up and shows some minimal age ie. staining (as can be seen on the pictures). It should be noted that all youth-related tinnies that were intended to commemorate an event at regional- (ie. 'towns'-) level (such as the piece on offer here) saw much more limited usage and can easily be graded 'very scarce'. Simply a nice occasion to acquire an attractive - and truly unusally found! - HJ- ('Hitlerjugend'-) related, so-called: 'Tagungs- o. Veranstaltungsabzeichen' for a justified price!
