Glockler badge location

#1 Post by Ignacio Vivancos »

Apparently Frankfurt Glockler delivered cars had a badge attached to its body, I believe just above or below the usual Reutter one.
Does anyone have a picture of this?
Thanks,
Ignacio

Here is an original that I bought from an old timer. Next to a new reproduction.

Hello george, I also have a couple of the new repos but have been looking for a “used” one like the one you pictured .
My “rough “ looking ‘59 (it was sold new at Otto glockler to a army lt in ‘59) And the new badges look odd on patinaed car.
Would you consider sellIng or trade for my two new badges?
Thanks for letting me know
Ron

Ron; I have the original one that was used as a pattern for those reproductions by Jeff Fellman. The paint has been stripped off, so you probably wouldn't like it.

Sharing as information only a photo of what I think is a reproduction Glöckler badge for the VW. The diameter of the circular part is 42 mm. Oddly enough I found this off the side of the road while walking through our neighborhood here in San Mateo, CA. It was sticking out of the dirt and only a small flash of light reflecting off a still shiny area caught my attention.

Hi Martin, That’s exactly what I thought! I had half a mind to go looking for other tidbits. What are the odds. Cheers, Adam
