Lotteries were very common in the Third Reich, both to raise money for the NSDAP and for the government. I don't recall if the WHW ran them as well.

Nice rare badge.


Cheers,

The KDF had lotteries too.
(In the KDF magazine K�ln-Aachen is a flyer mentioning "buy the KDF montly Magazine and make a chance, with 50 prizes for the winners").

Congratulations on an interesting and apparently not so often seen item.
