Here are my Waldeck Ribbon bars one set of which may look familiar to anyone following the earlier posts of this thread.
Another Waldeck recipient unknown
WWII mix with repair job on the iron cross ribbon. Could this have had wiederholungsspange? Or could it just have simply been damaged on the Russian front and field repaired...
The last one for me is a beautiful little Godet set recipient unknown

Very interesting guys.
From period photos, I have seen generals who should be wearing bars of 6+ awards, wearing "abbreviated" bars featuring only 3 awards. There are a lot of discrepancies out there.

You could have a point there, but what other ribbons bear a crown with crossed swords?
Kingdom of Saxony, Albrechts Orden Ritterkreuz possibly?

Hi,
Here are two bars to share with you which fit the topic of discussion. One with the Princely Hohenzollern House Order, and the other with HOH3x.
Bar 1:
Iron Cross 2nd Class 1914-18
Princely Hohenzollern House Order
Mecklenburg Schwerin militarverdienst
West Afrika Medal
Swedish order of the crown? (Swords striking down over, non-combatant?) Brunswick KVK?
Prussian Kronenorden
Red Eagle Order
Bar 2: Possible row 1 of 2?
Iron Cross 1914-18 + 1939 2nd class
HOH3x
Sachsen Altenburg Herzog Ernst Medaille OR Prussian Verdienstkreuz Gold?
Friedrich August Medal with the Vor Dem Feinde Clasp.
Mecklenburg Schwerin militarverdienst
Honour Cross
Any help putting a name and a history to these two bars would be much appreciated
Best Regards
Alan

Hi,
It is ok under UV light. It does not glow.
It could be the Italian Order too, you are quite right, as they both use the same ribbon
Best Regards

Last example is this 7 place bracket. Manufactured from zink with a brass pin and catch. The size is 19mm X 104mm and is suitable for seven 15mm award ribbons.
The catch and hinge are made from separate brass parts, which have been brazed onto the metal for a hand worked finish.
