This group contains four frosted glass tokens distributed for the Winterhilfswerk (WHW) street collections during the Third Reich era. Released as part of the 1941 "Deutsche Trachten" (German regional costumes) series, each rectangular plate features a molded relief figure finished with hand-painted enamel colors. The figures represent regional attire from various provinces, including Tirol (Tyrol) showing a man in a grey overcoat and hat, and Pustertal depicting a woman in a blue dress with a red apron, with the regional names written in black script along the lower border. All four pieces retain their white suspension cords threaded through a small hole at the top edge. The enameled surfaces show paint flaking and localized loss, with light surface grime from age. Each glass tag measures approximately 1.5 inches in height by 0.75 inches in width. OT
