A lot less than 1600. There were  1170 awards. I have the names all typed up, but I am still adding in information from the Vorschläge. The actual Anhalt "rolls" were just a list of names, ranks and units, with a cross-reference number to the volume and page where the award was approved. These volumes of recommendations and approval resolutions were stored in a basement in Oranienbaum, east of Dessau, during the communist era, and many were lost or severely water-damaged. 

If you want, you can let me know what are on your bars and I can check my work-in-progress. I might already have a possible match.

As I have mentioned before, my goal is more than a list of awards, but also a bit of information on the people who received them. I suppose I may have bit off more than I can chew. Here is an example of my work in progress. Please let me know if you think it is too busy or clunky, too many abbreviations, or any other criticisms. 

Hi Dave,

Thanks for your work. I think, and it's me only, you don't have to show the book and the page for your work. The most important is the date of the award and like you said, some informations about the owner (date ob birth, death, unit). Just my two cents

Christophe

David,

In the first book, you find only Prussian orders and who received them. In the second part, it's not complete at all. You can find more information about orders in books like Die Badener im Weltkriege. Same for Wurttemberg, Saxon. I have all of these books in my library.

Hi David

Her you can find all rolls published till now. Many more will be published in the future (I hope).

I hope it will help

My favorite ribbon bar is this one to Oberstleutnant Gerog Hoffmann (wasn't it once yours Deruelle?)

You are right, it was mine. I'm happy that it has found a good new home.

Christophe

Thanks Daniel. Like I have a doubt I prefer asking you.

Christophe

Hi

Here is a group from Officer of the Jäger Bataillon Nr. 13. Only two officers received these combo. The first one is Leutnant Paul Hederich who died in 1916 (he 's not received the RK) and the second one is Oberleutnant Georg Graf Vitzthum v.Eckstädt (who died in 1945). The Saxon Jäger visor hat is very rare to find. Mine is not in excellent condition but I have one. It's the most important for me.

Hi Daniel,

What a beauty. Can you tell me  for which order is the Bulgarian ribbon please. Thanks

Christophe

Christophe, are you ignoring my postings? It seems like... your question has already been answered, you're welcome!

My apologise Sascha. I have forgotten this topic. Like I do not collect Baden orders since 15 years. I have completely forgotten it. Sorry. Thanks for the answer.

Hi Peter, it is the first time I see such beauty. Congrats

Many thanks Claudio. I like the BV3 (I used to have one 15 years ago).  Do you  know the name of the officer who received this medal bar with Baden knight cross ? Thanks Claudio.

I'm still impressed by the quality of your collection. Congrats

Hi Claudio

Do you have a name for your medal bar with BV3? It is possible to have better photos of this medal. It is a very rare one. Thanks

Hi

Don't forget that on the claps for wartime medal, you find not only the year but the day and the month. this one is from the Aulock's medal bar, image I have found on eay years ago.

I hope it will help

Christophe

Hi Claudio

Your brother makes nice painting. Congrats.

Here is more information about WILSDORF Viktor von

I hope it will help

Regards

Christophe

Hi

Impressive collection, congrats.

Hi everybody

Recently reading one saxon historirc unit book. I have found another new owner of the St Henry knight cross ; Oberleutnant d. R. Franz Herrschel who begun the war in the UR 17. His name never appeared in the Richter's book

Here is the brothers Herrschell. Franz is on the left

Now with this new find, my St henry list has 2739 names. The Weber, Arnold and Keil's book, Die Orden des Königreiches Sachen has a list of 2749 names. We are closed. I hope that one day the list will be complete.

Christophe

Hi Paul,

Good idea you have there. Here is my favourite group. Items from an officer of the Saxon Jäger Bataillon Nr. 13. Only two officers received these combo. Leutnant Paul Hederich (died in 1916) and the last one Oberleutnant Georg Graf Vitzthum v.Eckstädt (died in 1945).

Christophe

Hi Roman,

What a group, thanks for sharing it with us. Congrats

RIP Tim Eriksen, sad news indeed

Hi,

With actual research, only 5 officiers received the following combo.

SV3bX, SA3bX, EK2, RE3X.

Here I show you one ribbon bar and items which could have been from von Hausen

Christophe

Hi

What a beauty. I have never seen one like this before. congrats
