It may be Turkish though the white stripes are narrow. 
 

I really like the crown and swords on the Bavarian. They’re perfect for the award.

Simius Rex, I have one bar with mini breast star devices and I’m pretty sure it’s authentic. However, they don’t seem to be the quality you show on the trifold ribbon. I’m no expert on these mini devices and this is my only bar with these higher orders.

Ill look for better pics

It would be wonderful to find a photo of Prittwitz in the field gray uniform of Gren Regt 6. but there are few photos of Prittwitz as far as I know but many photos never make it to the interwebs....

This is an interesting discussion so far. 

Would like opinion from Red Eagle collectors

Hi,

My question arrives from the photo of the tunics chest area for awards. I wonder...

Here’s another photo of von Prittwitz. Unfortunately, I can’t find any of him wearing field gray. 

question, was he awarded the Iron Cross 1st class 1914? I know he wasn’t active long at all during the war but assume he was awarded the EKI.

They look thicker than the later patterns to me but may be the viewing angle 

What pattern shoulderboards are attached to Leopold tunic?

Wow, the von prittwitz tunic is amazing. 

Beautiful 

Very sad

I wonder why he would choose to no longer where the Hohenzollern? 

Was he awarded a higher grade of the hohenzollern by the time he was awarded the EK2?
 

Was he a major or colonel in the photo posted?
 

Wonderful photos of the General. 

Nice

Are those cigar holders in last photo or what?

Yes, that’s a good book.  Thanks

Does anyone have general’s items to share?

Nice to own his tunic

Does anyone have a Bavarian Flugeladjutant aiguillette that will post images? 

I really like the bar?

Thanks...
