Attractive - and unusually-styled! - aluminium-based lapel-pin: 'Der Stahlhelm' - Bund der Frontsoldaten (Sta) - Eintrittsabzeichen 1930' being a non-engraved but maker-marked example that comes in an overall nice condition
This is a truly attractive - and truly unusually-styled! - example of a neatly painted ie. sprayed lapel-pin (aka: 'Eintrittsabzeichen') that was worn by a member of the organisation: 'Der Stahlhelm' - Bund der Frontsoldaten (Sta)' being an example that was issued in the year: '1930' and that comes in an overall very nice and/or fully undamaged- and/or untouched, condition. The badge on offer here is a so-called: 'Eintrittsabzeichen 1930' (or 'entry-badge') which is totally void of an engraved text or number on its back (as can be seen on the pictures): something that is more often the case with these somewhat later-dated 'Der Stahlhelm Eintrittsabzeichen'. The badge - which truly shows no paint-damage whatsoever - has I deem never been cleaned nor polished and still retains a superb and minimally darkened- (ie. tarnished) age-patina. It is also neatly maker-marked with the makers'-designation: 'Hermann Aurich - Dresden' and bears the usual 'Ges.Gesch.'-patent-pending mark as is more often encountered on these attractive (aluminium-based!) SH-membership-badges. The lapel-pin comes naturally also mounted onto its fully functional button-hole (-set-up). A similar example is also figured in the 'Heering-Hüsken'-lapel-pin catalogue, wherein it is given a unique reference-number (4107R) and an estimated value of 120 Eu. I deem this is an attractive and most certainly decorative badge which I have priced according to its fully untouched and/or minimally tarnished condition!
