      My TWM family

      Hi all. I have been out of this game for a long time now. I see some real high prices out there. Can someone give me an idea of the current values for these stars? Thanks.
    2. Tesekurler Demir. You mean the one with the ...beautiful wife....lol...?
    3. I just checked. The back of the photo has a note written in the old Turkish script. This was translated (by Demir I believe) as " when I was on board Yavuz" (other name for the Goeben.
    4. This one I have marked as linked to the Goeben....cannot recall why or how...maybe Demir can assist?
    5. Hahahahaha....They obviously did not ask my EX-wife.... Nice cross!!!!

      TWM certificate

      As you can see there is some doubt about the spelling of the man's name as I believe the original would have used a phonetic spelling in the Ottoman version. This is the box the cert came with. Obviously addressed to the man's wife or daughter. Name is Schampp I think.

      TWM certificate

      and here is a translation done by a Turkish friend a few years ago. I assume the wording remains the same on all....
    8. http://gmic.co.uk/uploads/monthly_03_2013/post-285-0-82565900-1363099850.jpgHi. just got this photo. A general (who is that?) seemingly attaching an award to the soldier's uniform but what? Strange place to pin anything???
    9. Merhaba Demir Bey You are far too modest about your own knowledge! As far as that Star is concerned, the rear set up does look convincing but the front....Is that painted? Can we have better/closer shots please? Terry
    10. Ferd. Urbahns (Photographer in Kiel). I never managed to put a name to the face......
    11. Thanks for these comments. Yes the TWM is a German/Austrian made piece, slightly vaulted. The photo is very faded so quality is not great. Here is a close up of the ribbons.
    12. Anyone got any ideas? Imperial era uniforms are not my thing so.... Thanks fo rlooking anyway.
