    1. Thanks, I don't recall to be honest. The collar on this Tunis is so hard that a man would have to been miserable wearing the uniform.
    2. The tunic is so small it had to been a skinny teenage lieutenant. I have another German and several French tunics so small I can't display them of the torsos I own. i really want a nice enlisted man's tunic then I think im done collecting. Well, I need a few odds and ends to finish a few displays too.
    3. it seems the French framed their awarded from WW1 more than most nationalities. At least that's how it seems me me... Like looking croix I wish I knew more about why some or dark and others not? I would also like to know how many manufacturers there were. To me honest, I don't know that I've ever looked to see if any I own arecmaker marked except for me Silver CdG.
    4. All very nice. I have many Finnish items but don't collect any more. It would be very difficult to find a person who wants to trade imperial German for Finnish....lol
    5. Good gravy.... rub it in till it hurts...lol Well, my came in Friday and it a real beauty in hand. These are quality badges. Your 800 silver badge raised the bar on these crosses.
    6. Bavarians wore a border of blue and white (blue and silver for officer) starting in 1916 on the bluse. NCOs also wore a rank tresse around the collar.
    7. Thank you Roman, i have always wanted one of these but they're not too commonly found. im trying to get this one.
    8. This looks to me of the same manufacturer and period. Looks to have a repair the the ping on the hing.
    9. Seems the LGR100 had red piping in all the locations many guard units had. Here's my tunic to example. I don't know any collars that were piped top and bottom but if socChip would know. The cuffs are piped top and bottom and the skirt is piped red.
    10. I do if I can locate them. I may take new since I'll probably sell a couple.
    11. Beautiul French citations are very attractive. I should have started collecting them long ago. I fear a fellow named Chris B has nabbed most of the nice German and French citations.... lol
    12. Very interesting and very clean. Is that an original mounting?
