A company called "Tims tags" which i use but does the tag only, a guy on here used to do the
Soldbuchs etc, i dont know if he still does them??, but try to do it yourself like i did, the translation
you can easy find on google, also pics of the original article you can use as a guide??

The company SOF sells all the stamps, books, paperwork etc, just get some brown or period ink
from e-bay for the writing plus some old period photo's you can get on there too, and maybe a
Feldpost letter or two you can slip inside the pages, these you can get on "flea bay" aswell??

It takes time and a little patience but well worth it and satisfying to do the "donkey work" yourself
rather than paying somebody else for a completed and finished article in my opinion ??

Anyway good luck :wink: , Pipes

If you must have gucci tags;

I think they are rather too tidy. I stamp my own as and when I need them.
Erste Zug have notes on Tags and three articles on Soldbuch, here is the first;

All the stamps you need are available from many sources, this is a cheap option for most of what you need;

Or you can have a little patience and wait until the soldbuch completing people find your post that is titled erkennungsmarke?

No worries mate, am working nights and often look at new posts, if i can help i will, i remember
when i first got into this lark and had no help and had to learn myself (the hard way lol) but its
easier if guys who have been there and done it pass on their tips, some wont lol, they think "Ive
done it myself why can't they lol", anyway i will post some pics of my finished Soldbuch if it will help
later, also i have many ink stamps etc so if i can help drop me a PM ??

All the best, Pipes :wink:

Lawrence you're being unfair - You have made more faux pas than a faux pas machine on fast forward - and in the early days people flocked to help you - You never listened and you did your own thing - You still do........ That aside -
If jackjones goes to the top right of this screen under the dark green band and looks for the word that looks like this
Search
Presses it and then in the search topic copies and pastes the word "Erkennungsmarke"
He will come up with this
search.php?keywords=erkennungsmarke&ter ... mit=Search
Oh look - I made it easy for him.... Passing on a tip you might say....
The forum is littered with good stuff on dog tags.

He might want to repeat it using the word Soldbuch too.

Me? I don't bother responding much any more because it's all been said (and largely ignored) and there's always someone who knows better.

OK - foul air exhanged for fresh, batteries charged with surface running - time to dive deep again........ Sound the klaxxon, close all hatches, secure torpedo tubes....... set hydroplanes to -20......

Thanks for the replies much appreciated. As infor the search Hoffman I did do that as i have done many times before posting, but
thanks for the feedback. I always do search and read up as much as a can but my head was getting a wee bit pickled, so i thought i would post it up in the forum so anybody that has got the dog tags (i know thats not the right phrase) that they could give me feedback on who to go to for good ones. I was also looking the complete package with the pay book already filled in - one site said that they would do it for $75 plus shipping which i thought was a bit steep, thats why i asked. In the past i have asked about things on the forum and face to face and have been put on a bum steer once or twice by people who i thought were in the know and who would help. But you always get one in the bunch whos a bit bad. I through things in to the forum to get as much feed back as i can and as much help.

Thanks for looking at this i know its a bit long winded.

P.S. Feedback is better than a christmas present (lol)
