📜 Historical Context:
Ceramic tinnies like this were often issued for early Nazi-era rallies, Jugend events, or local political functions. The date suggests this one commemorated a regional Hitler Youth gathering shortly after the HJ was officially declared the sole youth organization in Germany. Made in pressed porcelain and kiln-fired, these are less common than metal tinnies.
