Description
Lot of assorted items from early to mid 20th century Germany including a metal cigarette case engraved to commemorate World War I, 1933 Treaty of Versailles pamphlet / booklet, a certification paper for travel dated 1934, 2 pages of a passport, specifically mentioning travel between Germany and Belgium dated 1940, aluminum Luftwaffe table spoon marked H.M.Z. 41 and Fl.U.V. indicating Flieger Unterkunft Verwaltung (Flight Barracks Administration), and a cloth version of the German Cross badge/medal, Gold Class, 1941.
“The German Cross (German: Deutsches Kreuz) was begun by Adolf Hitler on 16 November 1941 as an award that was a higher level than the Iron Cross First Class but below the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross. It was given in two classes: gold and silver (the color of the laurel wreath around the swastika), the gold was given out for bravery, the silver was given out for excellent service. This award was also available in cloth, which made for easier wear on the combat uniform. The title of the award is taken from the fact that the swastika is a type of cross.”
