Third Reich Deutsche Arbeitsfront Celluloid Lapel Pin-Orange Variant-WWII Labor Front Badge
Third Reich Deutsche Arbeitsfront Celluloid Lapel Pin-Orange Variant-WWII Labor Front Badge
Offered is an original Deutsche Arbeitsfront (DAF – German Labor Front) celluloid lapel pin, a period political insignia worn by members of the German Labor Front during the Third Reich.
The badge features the distinctive DAF cogwheel emblem in raised relief against an orange celluloid background. The DAF emblem combines a swastika within a gear wheel, symbolizing the organization’s role as the state-controlled labor organization that replaced independent trade unions beginning in 1933.
This example retains its original celluloid face with attractive period color and a complete horizontal pin-back assembly. The reverse shows expected age-related oxidation and wear while remaining structurally sound with a functional pin and catch.
Orange and brown-toned celluloid DAF lapel pins are encountered less frequently than the standard blue examples and make an attractive addition to a collection of WWII-era German political insignia.
Condition:
- Original Third Reich period.
- Celluloid face remains intact with crisp raised details.
- Original pin, hinge, and catch are present and functional.
- Honest age-related wear and oxidation on the reverse.
- No major cracks or repairs observed.
- Please examine all photographs carefully as they form part of the description.
Specifications:
- Original Third Reich period
- Deutsche Arbeitsfront (DAF) lapel pin
- Orange celluloid face with raised DAF emblem
- Original horizontal pin-back
- Compact civilian-wear size
- Authentic period political insignia
A desirable original piece of WWII German political memorabilia, this DAF lapel pin is an excellent addition to collections focused on Third Reich organizations, political badges, or period celluloid insignia.
