Re: [T3] VW factory pins

<x-flowed>I have one of the corner stone pins as a replica. They were mostly given to prominent guests at the corner stone factory foundation ceremony on May 19th, 1938.
There was an article on the corner stone pins in VW Trends many years ago, probably around 1994-96. It also told the readers how to identify the real ones from repros.

It is 1938.  I don't know much about them...I'm hoping others can give me
more info.  The dealer said that they were not reproductions i.e. they're
the real thing.

Those are very interesting. I'm surprised to see the

swastica in the background

of the one from 1958. Are there dates on any of the

others?
