'DRL Sportabzeichen' in Bronze

Description

DRL Sports Badge in Bronze (Deutsches Reichsabzeichen für Leibesübungen in Bronze). Originally introduced as the DRA medal shortly after the 1913 Olympic games as an incentive to promote physical training among the German population. In 1933 the DRA badge was replaced by a new DRL badge of the same design. This is a nice tombak (Buntmetall) piece, maker marked by the company of 'Hensler' from Pforzheim, the badge is also marked with 'D.R.G.M. 35269'. Nice original example in very good condition!
