Scott Powell

i am fond of this one as well

This is one of my particular favourites

wow, every bar you post is stunning. You have really made my weekend with the great bars you have posted

thanx for sharing this!

NICE bar

beyond a doubt the finest Noncombatant bar i have ever seen, thanx for sharing and i hope you are able to ID it

Here's a very interesting example... albeit significantly earlier than Scott's bar:

fascinating bar!

thank you for posting such BEAUTFUL awards epsomgreen, i am in awe

very impressive!

I am pulling from memory here, but I recall seeing a photo of a railroad official with a medal bar like this-two different state Ls medals and a Centennial and maybe a KHK. In those days they seem to have worn all their medals together in uniform, so somebody who served in the Wurt. army from say 1895-1904 and then went back in @ 1914 (into a Prussian or imperial unit) and was out in 1920 may have had this bar.

thanx very much. i hadnt considered that

thanx very much for the insight! this one has me flummoxed

i came across this this bar for sale on another site,and was intriqued as i have never seen two Long Service awards from differnt kingdoms on the same bar before. is this possible/ acceptable? thanx very much in advance

i love how you are displaying your collection, VERY nice!

I hear you Scott - whenever I get a good run of gigs thats where the money ends up!! Those are some sweet bars!

cheers Jason

thanx Jason!

Man..... it used to be musicians were down at the edgewater in doing things that resulted in the mudshark song on the Frank Zappa album.... now they spend their time buying Imperial Medal bars !!!!

Whatever happened to "Drugs, sex, rock and roll!... Drugs, sex, rock and roll...." !?!?!?!

Sex Drugs and Rock and Roll has become Metamucil, Medal bars and Viagra

excellent grouping! i really like the cloth badges

The Hindenberg is indeed magnetic,and i was able to peek under the ribbons and the maker mark is

I don't usually collect loose medals, but i felt this Hamburg Cross needed a good home

This Oldenburg bar isa bit more 'salty' than i usually prefer,but it really spoke to me. I am in the minority as i really like the raw unfinished backing on the ribbon mount

My band has been gigging a bit more than usual,so of course that means more money to spend on Imperial Medal Bars.

I love the condition of this Braunschwieg bar

Claudio, i am in AWE of your bars!

here is my modest contribution

i use a sporterized 1944 SMLE enfield for deer. i load my own rounds, and go for a light high velocity round for White tail

congrats on a great bar

nice collecttion, i REALLY like the Bavarian bar with the Lubeck cross in particular

beautiful badge!

gosh thats nice! i have never seen a Mecklenburg Long Service Cross mounted . you just made my week!
