Lot 232
WWII German NSDAP Adolf Hitler 1933 party pin in excellent condition. The badge measurers 22cm in diameter and features a white enamel center with a black enamel swastika in the center and a broad red enameled band around the circumference in which is ADOLF HITLER in silver lettering at the top and the date, 1933 in silver at the bottom. The reverse of the badge is marked RZM and MI/129. A word of clarification about this badge there are those collectors that believe this type of badge is a fantasy piece and was never actually produced during the Third Reich era of 1933-1945. Their argument is that these badges are RZM marked, and since the Reichszeugmeisterei (RZM), did not officially begin marking badges and uniform accessories until early 1935, there is no way that a badge made in 1933 could bear an RZM mark. That would be true if the badge was, in fact, produced in 1933. The reality is that they were not. These badges were produced as COMMEMMORATION pieces which commemorated the date for Hitlers 1933 appointment by President Bismarck as chancellor of the coalition government in Germany at that time. On 30 January 1933, Adolf Hitler was appointed chancellor of a coalition government of the NSDAP-DNVP Party. The SA and SS led torchlight parades throughout Berlin. In the coalition government, three members of the cabinet were Nazis: Hitler, Wilhelm Frick (Minister of the Interior) and Hermann Göring (Minister Without Portfolio). With Germans who opposed Nazism failing to unite against it, Hitler soon moved to consolidate absolute power.
