There’s Europe and there’s Westerneurope by Informal_Mountain513 Tags:2 Western Europe 4u2WesternEurope4uEurope 6 comments I still use a Rotring pen that is marked “Made in West Germany”. It works perfectly and it will probably outlive me. Made in GDR meant the tool was made in a way to make it a hand me down for generations to come, not to break after 5 years so you buy a new one. But the older made in west Germany stuff was okish too I have hedge shears like that And a triple barrel hunting gun from VEB Jagdwaffen Suhl “Made inGDR” marked ” Q1″ Qualitätsstufe 1 for Export and high ranking partymembers. They knew on both sides of the wall. My girlfriend found “Made in DDR” on one of our kitchen towels a while ago I have a kitchen mixer that’s ‘Hergestellt in der DDR’ and a typewriter that’s ‘Made in GDR’. But I’m a bit of a sucker for vintage stuff. DDR-built trailer tent whose frame was derived from the Trabant one We went on camping holidays for many years with it It’s still in the garage Comments are closed.
