This badge is from the Weimar-republik era; before 1933, pr? Nazi .

I found it , yes :) , again on a fleamarket in a box filled with a large pack of little chains and cheep bling bling jewelery ... sticked together with the badge somewhere inside it....I pulled the ball up and found it...
Does somone know if this badge is rare ...I can't find another one on the net for comparisson . What would be the value ?

The Wandervogel, an early youth group, is reasonably well known, but I have never seen a badge until now.

Thanks for posting

The Wandervogel was officially organized in 1901. By the 1920's it had split into 3 major groups and a number of smaller groups. All were banned in Germany in 1933. Attached is one of the more common pins for the Wandervogel.
