Hi gents September 1907 June 1912 tony

Hi gents these all belong together... the first dated 1921, the last in the snow is 1927 I believe shoulder tabs on the next one look most like 23, certainly 2... tony

Hi gents sadly the front of this one is faded. Overcoats, rifles and entrenching tool are hung up in the background.... After adjusting it a bit..... I think the man on the left is on a field telephone tony

Hi gents tony ——///———- evening Bayern yes I see it now... I thought the Uhlan cap was one of the pickelhaube with an eagle on top.... thanks as always... tony

Hi Gents From 1912.... tony

Hi IrishGunner I forgot to thank you for your comments on the heavy gun pics so... thank you, it’s always appreciated... and, as you ‘gently’ reminded me, the mortar is a 30.5cm and not a 20.5cm as I had labelled it.... thanks again tony

Hi Bayern you know I readily jump to conclusions! I thought maybe the guy with his back to camera? And the one behind the ‘blurry’ guy? The headwear was the reason... tony

Hi Gents a patriotic pc so you may have seen it before but it’s a good ‘un... tony

Hi Gents i’ve just received this today... i noticed it it listed as a Signum Memoriae and grabbed it sharpish.... To my distraction when I tried google it only offered me ‘porn’ and I didn’t find anything out that this thread didn’t already tell me.... So does anyone have a link to some info about this please? i’m particularly interested in knowing how many were issued..... cheers tony

Hi Gents War games I believe... with some Germans present.... and tony

Hi Gents tony

Hi Gents changed my mind about the scanner.... tony ****** too kind Sir

hi GreyC that's a fantastic picture excellent thanks tony

hello Bayern great detail thank you you never fail to surprise me with the details you provide.... ive decided to try using my scanner to do the pictures justice so who knows what you'll be able to spot then! thanks again tony

hi both thanks again for your knowledge... always appreciated tony

Hi Bayern I am surprised at the description of the card as a munition column - far more interesting than that. when I saw it first hand I was glad I got it. I don’t have another photo where the hussars are equipped with them. Would you agree Hungarian? I say that because no cap peak. Or is that not the case with this headwear ? cheers tony ps /. You’re on early tonight... nice one!

Hi gents A few more that go with the above.... Three pics of artillery pieces First two are out of action. I don’t know if they are Austrian or Italian perhaps? Breech blocks missing on both. First appears to have sustained battle damage Second one looks like the barrel has been cut off. this third pic is I believe of a skoda 20.5cm tony

Hi GreyC Of course (!) I didn’t know that... so nice one thanks. I now see the Sa on the back .... i know you like such things... cheers. Would it be cheeky to ask if you know what the first 2 words of the 1908 annotation say please?? or even just is it a name or phrase? tony ps i have a spare one.....

Hi Gents I hope you will enjoy some of these. There are more to come. And please feel free to comment or add your own if you want. February 1913 May 1913 July 1904 May 1908 June 1910 August 1905 tony

Hi Gents ‘Big Wash’ and a 1908 family snapshot... tony

hi GreyC Forgot to say before... thanks for posting those pictures great stuff! cheers tony

Hi gents this first one was sent as German feldpost. The stamp is ‘Orstkommandantur Halles’ : District command in Halles 6th March 1917 the front title says it shows a munitions column but also more interestingly notice the ‘lancers’ amongst them..... tony tony

Hi gents iron cross 1st class and a ‘proper’ looking dog... Luxury travel.... (1918) And another gymnastics gathering... (1916) tony

Hi gents A couple more sadly again not the clearest but still worth their place I think.... tony

Of course! it should have occurred to me the ‘badge’ was also a stain. i do tend to post these late at night after a couple of drinks - that’s my excuse..... thanks Bayern tony
