The competition was organised by the German Labour Front with the aid of the Hitler Youth and the National Socialist German Students’ League. It was held at the local, Gau and national level,this was the local level and was subdivided into numerous vocational and academic branches.

Competitors were tested in the theory and practice of their profession, as well as in their adherence to Nazi ideology. Women were also tested in housekeeping. The winners were presented to Labour Front head Robert Ley and to Hitler in person, and could expect substantial professional advancement.

This is a fantastic, mint example of the Kreissieger Award dated for the last year the competitions were held, except for the painted 1944 one; no other competitions were run during the conflict years. Maker marked for A.G.Tham, this seldom seen maker is very hard to come by, and has quality that just shouts out. I will let the pictures do the talking
