I have only one of these. Belongs in a researched group to a Commissar. Nice early one in silver.

Oh yeah, remember that first one I posted? The "on it's way one"? This is what's inside!

Yep, cases are always a treat to view! I'll come up for air for awhile, anybody else?

Same award, different case/maker. This one untitled......

Even the Saxon 25-Year Officer's Long Service Cross had a case!

How about some Saxon Verdienstorden cases?

How about the Albert Order Officer's Cross? Not many of these around!

Or, we can always do the breast star:

And a Saxon Albert Order Commander's Cross case:

Saxon Military Order of Saint Henry, Ritterkreuz:

Here's the other half:

Kind of a dangerous subject to open the door on ;>) Here's part of my old display case:

On it's way from Germany:

Don't recognize that stitch patter being similar to the earlier one? Perhaps this will help

And by request......... the lot I have on eBay right now. Selling as fakes, up to a whopping $1.04 for the lot! Evil eBayites! Not too worried about them being resold as real........ check the next post.

And another to be "proud of"

Our boy has branched out! Check this monstrosity out!!!!!

Reverse. Note the unusual pair of hooks for mounting to the jacket.

When I first received the photos of this bar from a contact in Germany I could not for the life of me figure out why they mounted the Baden Merit Medal like this..... when it showed up, neatly behind the Silver Bravery Medal is a pair of stitches to keep the Baden Medal from sliding around. Of additional interest is the W?rttemberg Fire Service Medal for 25 Years Long Service awarded 1919-20 ONLY!!!!! Just one of the spiifiest frack bars I've ever found!
