Fritz Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 The badge is for a woman! Probably a volunteer woman driver in wartime. KraftfahrerIN is the female version of Kraftfahrer. Apart from that, never seen this before. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenny Andrew Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Yes this is a scarce badge made in enamel with very few known to exist, unfortunately the one in the auction is a fake with the usual tell tale coffin type pin, I believe these fakes were made in Florida, here is an original. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fritz Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 There are so many different small badges, it is impossible to know them all, I forgot to mention, there is a badge catalogue by Hüsken, which has been available for some years, and each type and variant has been given a number and subnumber in this catalogue. I believe it is also available in English. The German title is something like: "Kleinabzeichen Deutscher Organisationen 1870-1945" or similar 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
