Hallo Heiko, here is the pic of Emil Frenzel 1914 before he went to Africa. it was in a old thread from 2007. I couldnt find my Reichsheer ranklist but I wonder if he continued in the Wermacht? And right now I got some more info In the "Kolonial Hand und Adressbuch 1926-1927" he is listed as Kaufmann so he probably didn´t join the Reichsheer? He was living in Nürnberg Huldstrasse 24! The search for more info continous. MFG Christer

Aha, Thanks Theodor I wonder if there really is 12 awarded ? If you just count the years it would be about 8 until now and we have the names of 8 Now I am waiting for someone to show a pic of a document That would be a sensation ! Christer

At Last, I have been hunting one of theese for some time since I bought a Photo with one of the last members of von Lettows force in East Africa november 1918. Emil Frenzl was a Feldwebel and was one of the last 155 to surrender. And now I got the "Löwenorden" found it at a Swedish auction site 1 hour ago..... I post better pics when I get it. All the best from Sweden Christer

HI all collectors! Does anyone have the names on the awardees of the Botev Prize? I have 6 names Laszlo Nagy , Hungary 1976 Rafael Alberti ,Spain 1980 Umberto Eco , Italy Evgeniy Yevtuschenko , SU Mario Undetti , Uruguay Gardine Gordimer , South Africa Christer

Here is a nice photo I got recently an old veteran from both 1912 and 1914 wars but non fighting in both. I havent seen any photos earlier when theese medals where worn so I thought is was a nice pic to my collection. I wonder what kind of work he did ? Maybe a doctor ? Christer

Hi Saschaw, Aha is there a bad guy even in Saxony-Anhalt now Theese people seems to turn up everywhere.... Thanks, I put another name on my "black List" and that list is getting longer every day ..... Soon I have to buy from myself Take care all Christer

Hi , here is a newcomer. Wurtemberg Wilhelm cross ws , Silver Merit medal and Long Service Some sort of no frontline duty I suppose. My first Wilhem cross combo Christer

Hi all, what do you think about this? What should the second ribbon with swords be for? Sachsen Weimar General Honor Decoration? or a Sachsen Meiningen Honor medal with pointless swords? And Schwarzburg silver medal with swords ? He must have liked to put swords on everything..... All the best from Sweden Christer

Theese medals are quite hard to find , if the information is right that I have only 1000 was made. And the documents is even harder to come by, I have one doc and that is the only one I´ve seen. I wonder who got theese medals ? Hope the pic will show now... Regards Christer

Very nice ribbon bar ! Theese bars is not very common , and the 1918 Freedom Cross 4th class has not been awarded in large number (I can mail you the totals if you want) All the best from Sweden Christer

Hallo all reserchers out there, What is the situation about Schwarzburg Rolls? Last time i saw them mentioned they where 99% ready. Could it be something for Santa to put in the sock? All the best from the other side of the water Christer

And sold for amazing 125 $ Did you get them Stogieman? Why this record braking price for a 2nd and 3rd class 9 Sept, was it because of the nut conversion? Well seems like the financial crisis is over Christer

Just want to express my gratitude to all who has been involved in the making of this book! I think it will be a collectable itself Now I sit back and wait for my ex to arrive and know that this summer will be a good one Have a nice summer all Christer

Aha ! I was after that one too, glad to see it went to a good home Anyone seen a document for a Order awarded to a woman? Christer

I supose you have seen my Hinderburg Cross site , it is not so good but I will make a better one when I got some spare time ...... proably in teh next centuary http://bayoswede.zoomin.se/index/29788.html All the best from Sweden Christer

:cheeky: Hi all, I just bought a small group to a Woman. Dr Dona Ivanova Tjankova (if I read it right ?) She got the 1941-1944 Order II Class 31 Dec 1969. thats the book with the photo. And again in 17 Oct 1988 she got a 9 Sept 1944 1 st Class wo swords. (both awards w boxes was in the group) My question is what is written in the 1988 order book? It says something ending with 80 r Could it be something about her 80s birthday ?? Then she would been 61 in the photo from 1969 Anyone who can help me All the best from Sweden Christer

Thanks Rick , you are amazing ! I didn?t get much right ... Well must be the bad weather right now in Sweden (we blame everything on the weather here...) So hes not from Saxony at all but Major in Hessen ? Maybe the back could give some clues ?? Magdeburg? What state ? i love theese puzzles All the best from Sweden Christer

And a bigger pic of the Ribbon bar Christer

What do you think about this man? He was sold as a Saxon/Anhalt Landjaeger. If I read the ribbon bar right He got EK II , SA3aXkr and ? The photo is dated 1931 so it couldnt be any EHK. Christer

And here is the Epson scan of the back All the best from Sweden Christer

Bayerischer Kriegerbund Dem Verdienst ? Anyone knows anything about this? I suppose its a Weimer era award for some veterans organisation ? It is very well done from C Polleath Schropenhausen age ? Christer

:jumping: Great Order Stogieman, I wonder how llong they awarded theese "old" issues of Order of Labour? This is awarded in 1959 and by then the new type should have been out and around. I have also a similar set with book from 1959 . All the best from Sweden Christer
