Five WWII German WHW (Winterhilfswerk) donation badges, representing a range of home-front charity collectibles. Included is a glazed porcelain "Reichsmütterdienst" blue forget-me-not flower badge, a molded green plastic holly leaf sprig marked "WHW Reichsheck" on the reverse, two distinct glazed ceramic and porcelain multi-masted historic sailing ships, and a stamped silver-grey metal rose pin. Badges measure 1 -2 inches in height and 1/2 - 1 inches in width. The front faces display clean surfaces, bright colors, and flawless glazes. The reverses show age-typical glue degradation: the metal rose retains its original functional safety pin, while the porcelain flower, both sailing ships, and the plastic holly leaf are missing their rear pin attachments.
