      OK, I'm back to 1897-1913 for a date on this puppy.

      Hi Christophe, My file pix of the outside of the case is corrupted, so no joy there. Sorry!

      And a cased Lubeck:

      Oh heck, why not........... Here's a boxed Bremen Cross:
    5. Stogieman
      This is kinda fun, here's a very interesting loose example on an original, Austrian-style tri-folded 25mm. ribbon mounting!

      And just for fun, here's herr Weitze's original sales photo:

      Close up of the packet. Safe to assume he was one of the "official" makers!

      Here's what was inside the small box: The Cross in the packet Safety Pin for the uniform all 3 ribbon widths! 9mm, 15mm, 25mm.

      Here's the small-format box of issue
    10. Stogieman
      Here's a photo of the large-format box of issue
    11. Stogieman
      This very early example came from a bar that was stripped by a German eBayite........... the bar included the German MEZ1 for 1866
    12. Stogieman
      And just for fun, here's an example awarded to a German pre-1900!
    13. Stogieman
      Here's another... I know what these are, how about you boys & girls??
    14. Stogieman
      Heh, heh.... how about some examples of Turkish awards from WW1 other than the TWM??
    15. Stogieman
      See, here's another example... but this one is a 25 year one, right? (photo courtesy of Niemann-Hamburg)
    16. Stogieman
      And for that matter.... why do some 40-Year crosses have Mother of Pearl Backs and others do not? (photo courtesy of Niemann-Hamburg)
    17. Stogieman
      I believe this one is 50-Years for an Officer. (photo courtesy of Niemann-Hamburg)
    18. Stogieman
      And while we're on the subject, can someone please post examples and explain the distinctions between the various grades of the Imperial Austrian Officer's Long Service Crosses. I believe this one is 40-Years. (??)
    19. Stogieman
      Here's another example.
    20. Stogieman
      Can anyone sort out the differences between an Austrian 1., 2., 3. Klasse Long Service Award for "Other Ranks"??? As an example, here's a (purported) example of a higher class award. Is this distinction reality? or is it a "fabricated" market for collectors? Thanks! Rick
    21. Stogieman
      I'd like to see a close-up of the SS mounting, and a full, close photo of the back please!
    22. Stogieman
      I'd agree with John on this. I've never seen a credible/provenenced Para Badge by JFS
    23. Stogieman
      Interesting that the hinges on these are so close to the Juncker Heer Para Badge Hinges (Type 1, Aluminum).... or is it just my eyes & wishful thinking?
    24. Stogieman
      As an aside........... Marcus, when you publish that book, will there be an extensive "Rogue's Gallery" of bogus boxes, etc. as well??
    25. Stogieman
      Hi Jan, oh to be so bored and stuck indoors............ awesome group of badges!
