Because of their apparent age, I wouldn't get rid of any of them until I was sure what they were. It may resemble a Nazi insignia, but may be something entirely different. They are truly a piece of the past and worth treasuring.

I think the pink and whit Flyfoot square on this page is the same square as the blue and white one in second row above.
