Hitler Jugend Kreissieger Badge – 1939 Bronze
£355.00
The Hitler Youth Kreissieger Badges were awarded to the local and national winners of the annual Reich vocational contest. These contests were held by the Nazi labour organization, the DAF, with the assistance of the Hitler Youth and the Nazi students association. The competitions started in 1934 initially were intended for youth who were learning skilled trades. Contestants took a series of tests in which they were graded on specialized skills pertaining to their trade (theory and practice) as well as punctuality, personal hygiene, orderliness, and adherence to Nazi ideology.
An excellent example with a really crisp finish, highly detailed. Maker marked AG THAM GABLONZ aN.
A fine example of this award that is now becoming hard to find.
