[dg39]

Anyone have any in depth information on this pin? 1930-40 era. Music. 25 year. But no other information.
Anyone in Germany know? or here in U.S.
As you can see very well made. 1-1/2 inches in diameter.
Thanks
DG

Hi

It´s a pin of the "Singers Society" of the town of Ingolstadt in Bavaria in Germany.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ingolstadt
As far as I could find out, the Society was established in 1850.
Here a notification from 1950 of a concert in connection to the 100th anniversary.

As the pin is clearly not from 1875 (?) I would interpret the pin so that it was given to members,
who had been members for 25 years.

Nice pin!

Ingolstadt is a beautiful old city.....I've been there a few times when I lived in Stuttgart. By the way, Ingolstadt was the residence of Dr. Frankenstein and his monster!
