<HTML>Hi Werner
Yes, U-534 did have an emblem. It was “The Hunter from Kurpfalz†The emblem is a giant “U†that the tops of the “U†looks like periscopes facing to the left. In the middle of the “U†is a Hunter on a horse that appears to be jumping though the “Uâ€. The hunter has a large hat on, with a tall feather in the hatband. He also has a “blunder blast†type large gun shouldered on his back with a shoulder strap. The word “Kurpfalz†appears under the horse. (Ref. Pg. 118, “U-boat emblems of World War II 1939-1945†by Georg Högel). I have no way to send a picture or photograph.
Good Luck and Good Hunting,
