    Portrait of Georg F?rst Musikmeister


    Recommended Posts

    Some time ago, one or two years, I got a group photo of Reichswehr Musicians ( Rick will remember, cause he identified some of the men )

    I can not find the thread anymore, maybe it wasn't even in this Forum.

    Today I got this beautiful portrait:

    It has a dedication and signature on the back:

    I remembered that Rick told me, that this was the former Musikmeister of the Bavarian Infanterie-Leibregiment who also was the composer of the Badenweiler-Marsch, the regimental march.

    It took me one hour to search for the group photo which is still in my collection, but was not stored in the right place.

    Anyway. Glad that I got this nice portrait today - and yes - it was cheap. While the rest of the collectors here look for KC-Holders, Tiger-Tanks and Me-109 photos, I am always willing to pay low money for some really rare birds like this one. :rolleyes:

    Kind regards

    Thank You Glenn, excellent research.

    I thought it was Rick, cause he identified so much of my photos.

    Sorry, it was You. Now I remember.

    Hell, that was already back in 2005. :speechless1:

    Here's another scan from today (cause I even don't find the older scans anymore ) from the group in the middle with their medal-bars.

    Thanks again, Glenn.
