1933 Leipzig Messe Trade Fair MM Logo with Adler and Swastika Rare Type Numbered Pin Badge
This badge is from the 1933 Leipzig trade fair, it is made of metal and has a safety clasp style fastener to the rear and features the MM logo. Historical BackgroundThe Leipzig Trade Fair (German: Leipziger Messe) was a major fair for trade across Central Europe for nearly a millennium. After the Second World War, its location happened to lie within the borders of East Germany, whereupon it became one of the most important trade fairs of Comecon and was traditionally a meeting place for businessmen and politicians from both sides of the Iron Curtain.
