Hi Kraut, nice Flieger-Kappmesser Here is my father's - I lost it once, found it again - only to give it away, but I got it back after 24 years in a friend's collection.

Hertzog was jewish - see the NYT link

Obituary of R Hertzog senior from the NY Times: http://query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/...9679C94699ED7CF

Ahaa, Rudolph Herzog built a department store in Swakopmund, Deutsch-S?dwest-Afrika from left: Hotel F?rst Bismarck then the Rudolph Hertzog Store (1905)

Indeed! April 10, 1814 The Prussians were there together with troops from Britain, Austria and Russia.

For the entry of Paris the inscription would have been 1871-1914 :cheeky:
