Ricky take a look at this!

@Pegasus, no I am trying to find out if they have it or not still

@Rick, unfortunatly that did not come with the set. I bought that a long time ago from Claudio anticipating putting it with a Gold SC someday

Thanks all of you guys for the nice comments!

What no Germany this year???

Gerd you little commie, you are shooting der fuehrer!!!!

Here's my favoriteChistmas Feldpost. Don't have it at hand at the moment to show the stamp. I've got a few more if anyone's interested.

Tom that is a fantastic card! If you indeed have extras I am very interested too!

Best, Sal

Thanks everyone for the really great pics!

This is two more nice sets you've aquired now..........Jacques I feel your tension and worry hehehehe

Sally, I take you won't be in Germany this year then as you're buying these excellent items ! Love the case mate, you'll have to let me put that in my book !

No problem Marcus, any cases I have are at your disposal! I am still hoping to get to Germany but the money situation looks grim. I just could not pass these 2 deals up!!!

I did read your post first

Then I was chatting to Jacques on MSN and he continued to scare me for fun !!!

before he finally said I should send it back....and then sent me his address

I think jacques should post up the info he has on Oblau now since he almost gave me a heart attack!

Ok, if Jacques says that there are documents with German ranks, it must be true.

I hope Jacques answered before Sal had read my post. Otherwise, I hope I did not scare you, Sal!

Best regards

Sal,

Very nice! Although I stopped actively pursuing TR stuff some time ago, and have never really been into LC items, I am a sucker for nice awards accompanied by their documents.

I find quite a lot of nice and affordable Imperial documents on German eBay and am constantly astonished at the number of people who dispose of items that really did belong to members of their families.

As in your case, it often only becomes apparent when you are able to compare the name on the documents with the seller's name. I think it is a little sad that so many people have no interest in their family's history, but I am happy to look after the items for them.

Was this the only award and document the family had or do they have other documents, photos, letters, etc.?

I am working on that very thing! Yes I think he has one more spanish document and a newsclipping but not much else.

Hi Gary,

I would love to see pics from the album!

Best, Sal

Well , when I asked for the sellers bank information the fellows last name turned out to be Oblau! So I asked what the relation was and Willi Oblau was his uncle. Needless to say I am pleased and that was the icing on the cake!

Now for the more interesting part... this came with it

The case!
