Nice Bar Bob!

How did you deduce he was a ? straphanger of a Horse man? interesting...Hmmm.

and yes it is Amazing how RR can 'read' as such, and tell a story from these bars...

we are so priveledged to have such a man in our Gentlemens group here!. His insight is just what we all want...to hear about our wee treasures...and be able to smile with the knowledge of Something! about our collecting habit! ... something about the lives of these men who fought and toiled for their country in their German way.

Rick! please do not worry Poor Bob...he has a weak heart...

Cheers,

Paul

Hello Gary,

A nice addition!

Very nice combination...

Cheers

Paul

Nice Bar Chris!

This thread is great! it has turned out to be a nice little informative thread....thankyou gents for your contributions!

Regards

Paul

Thankyou Stogie!

Hmmm, its all getting more and more expensive...the more i delve into the "slippery slope" ........arrgh! and its Christmas and all.....Wallets getting severely strained!....

But thanks again for your help! i may try with a subtle offer and see how i go....

Paul

Do not worry about the Astroturf background...i told you about Charlie before...He is harmless...and does not know of your TM...

Still want to know how much i should offer on the Rote Adler 4th class?

and the $250 was a figure i used for a starting point...

so you reckon its cheap at $250?

Cheers

Paul

and here are some more pics of them....

Hello Gents,

I have been offered a Parade single mount Prussian Rote Adler

As these are not my specialty..i have no idea what they are worth....can someone give me a ballpark figure to work with? thanks!

Also here is a 5 place bar on offer....is this combo possible? and whats a good starting point with this one?

Say $250 USD?

Thanks ever soo much for your help here gents! much appreciated.

Best regards

Paul

I agree with Stogie...its an impressive peice!

Well done!

You must post your collection in the lounge...for all to see...

Cheers

Paul

Welcome Greg!

Enjoy the serenity here!

Paul

Nice Bar!

Hi Jason,

Nice bars! indeed!

The last one is very neat! very tidy and the ribbons are tightly furled. Yum!

Cheers,

Paul.

I cannot even see it at all.....Hmmmm strange...

WoW! i had no idea these existed...wonder why? perhaps it was the weight like mentioned earlier...Hmmmmm

Thanks for sharing Jens

Jason...you will love this one then!

Oh! and Bob, thanks for the kind words

( you see...i have succumbed very well haven't i? ...heh heh...)

Evil cackles heard in the distant.....

Great collection Don!

Love the Tank batallions! they look impressive!

The Imperial section is nice too, with 1st and 2nd crosses lined up...

and the diversity of awards. ( try Medalbars.....and as Bob always says...its a slippery slope!) once bitten....thats it!...

Thanks for showing

Cheers

Paul

Cheers Gents,

Daniel, would the ribbon bar then have swords and crown on it to denote the MVO with Crown and swords?

Would love to see the framed pic....

Otto, i have one too! and i do love these medals as well. i have another on a pre 1900 three place bar and on a 6 placer with EKII, FAK, HH, HK+X, 25Yr LS, Centar...

Heres my little Centarmedaille after a carefull clean! and a wee minature bow ribbon.. neat eh!

Regards

Paul

PS: No-one got a Bavarian 9Yr sevice medal for me?

Here is the other one!

Enjoy!

Good Morning Gentlemen,

more goodies have arrived!

The Bavarian trio ..the third medal is the Signum Memoriale which is wrong...

i need to replace it with a Bavarian 9yr.... does anyone have one for me?

I like this bar...as it is one of the few i have...that does not have the HK on it!

The second is a well made bar with the ribbons tightly furled around the bar.

Regards

Paul

Wooops Stevo...your'e on the slippery slope as Bob would say...

sorry mate...but you are a goner....hee hee.....(satanic laugh.......)

seriously......Welcome to the club!

Imperial! ....so much fun!!!.....its just the ticket!

Cheers,

Paul
