A scarce Abzeichen der Burdezeit (Badge of the Burden Times), first made and worn when the NSDAP was banned in November 1923 after the failed Putsch as a way to display support to the party without breaking the law because the badge did not display the party name. The swastika, not yet recognized as an official Nazi symbol, was allowed on the badge. The Weimar government issued another decree in late January 1924 that banned these badges. The ban was lifted in February of 1926. This motto badge was made as late as the early 1930’s. Anyone could buy and wear one. The badge was produced in two different sizes, 17 and 23 mm. The badge is of course complete with its functional pin/catch construction. Rare original badge with slight enamel loss on the “E” otherwise in very good condition!
