Description
(Dr. Fritz Todt Preis). Constructed of silvered feinzink; the obverse depicting a German national eagle with open wings standing on a podium inscribed “DR. FRITZ TODT” with a mobile swastika within a cogwheel beneath; the reverse with a vertical pinback, a sheet metal hinge, and a round wire catch; numbered “382” on the reverse; measuring 42.75 mm (w) x 65.91 mm (h); weighing 57.0 grams. The award booklet is numbered 382. It is for the region of South Westphalia and dated twice, to Bochum on August 15, 1944 and to Bochum-Gerthe on September 5, 1944. The two signatures by the Gauobmann of the Gau and the company works manager are illegible. It measures 148 mm x 209 mm, in overall better than very fine condition.
Footnote: Karl Zimmermann was born on June 27, 1901. He was awarded the Dr. Fritz Todt Prize for his 27 years of work for the Bergbau-A.G. (mining company) Lothringen. At the time of the award, Zimmermann worked as a Vermessungssteiger, a surveying mining foreman. He is described as an extraordinarily hardworking and judicious worker who, during the difficult years of war, has fulfilled his duties without consideration for his own personal needs or his health. Even though he was plagued by a severe illness and had to deal with a chronic staff shortage due to his workers being drafted into military service, Zimmermann managed to develop a new level in his shaft mine almost on his own.
