Trophy-hunter steals Hitler badge - Times Online November 19, 2005 But the prize trophies were Hitler’s and Goebbels’ party membership badges — among 10,000 issued to its first members in 1934. Hitler’s was marked “No 1” on the reverse side.
I can't stand how they "candy coat" things by using other than the correct terminology for what has happened. For instance- "Trophy Hunter" should be replaced with "Thieving Scumbag"" and secondly, it irritates me that the word: Nazi, is tossed around and used so wrongfully. I can't stand when the media calls the Wehrmacht-the Nazi Army etc. Anyway, a thief is a thief no matter what term is used. The thief who stole Hitler's party badge reminds me of watching one of those Pink Panther movies-you know where the P.P. diamond is stolen. Anyway, my whole point is, is that it's a damned shame that this item will never see the light of day again nor to ever be seen by thouse who would have otherwise had seen it on disply on some special occasion. Erich Topps items are still missing as well. >:-((
