From looking at his other offerings, he seems to be more of a toy/die cast seller and probably knows more about them than insignia and pins. Just a guess though???

Bottom line, I am sure if I were looking for one I'd still be looking!

Being a committee badge it may be quite hard to find, there's plenty of badges out there that I don't see why they are the prices they are be them low or high, everyone and their dog have some badges and something relatively scarce can be had for less for some and if you're a collector war time badges and have never seen this before you may pay it.

If Terry is realllly desperate for one there's an example in the US:

Thanks Steve, but not in my area of collecting. I was just commenting re the dealer.

It's the swastika that makes it appealing, anything pre-Third Reich with a swastika on it has collector appeal. The swastika has been a religious symbol for centuries and only gained notoriety after the man with the funny mooey decided to adopt it.
