1943 Warsaw Getto Uprising Badge |
||
|
We received pictures of a badge commemorating the
Warsaw Getto Uprising of 1943. The front shows a Hebrew text, meaning:
In eternal memory of the Warsaw uprising - 1943. The back
shows the name of the manufacturer:
Poellath Schrobenhausen, a company in Bavaria, Germany.
It is remarkable that this pin was ordered at a
German firm that some years earlier produced pins of a totally
different character for the German army. Beneath the pin is written in Hebrew: Pesah night, 1947. The Warsaw ghetto uprising final battle started at the eve of the Jewish holiday Pesach.
So this pin was made before the independence of
Israel.
