    1. My fixed bale with early Westinghouse liner. This came from the estate of an 8th Airforce officer but there is nothing to say it was his helmet.
    2. Here is my Schaumberg Lippe offering. Standard trio but with wound badge and lapel pin. All came together. Rich
    3. Here is mine. Standard fare trio. Nothing special just a nice representation for Wuerttemberg.
    4. Here is my second one. I believe this is a luxury, private purchase Hanseatic cross in silver. The Hindenburg is also private purchase and made from bronze (non magnetic). The reverse has an off white backing often seen in Godet bars, but without label.
    5. Here is one of mine. For some reason the Hanseatic ribbon is deteriorating and a lower part is missing. Reverse is with a tailors label. C.G Ulrich, HAMBERG and has a green backing.
    6. Lovely bar and great to see some of Ricks bar staying within the GMIC community. Rich
    7. This one was on the Militaria Berlin update today (they own the photos). Looks like a similar hinge/pin set-up but just not a chunky!
    8. ​Thanks, Brian. I just wasn't sure of the criteria. ​I never really paid that much attention to the EK2 to be honest. Going to look more closer at it tonight! ​Thanks! ​I would imagine the former. Surely a general would have much more awards than this?
    9. I am assuming this is all Prussian. No other states on it so I guess so: Am I right in thinking this soldier was in service in 1870 and 1914 hence the centenary medal? Or what was the criteria? Rich
    10. Unfortunately I didn't save any more photos of the medal bar. If I recall the photos in the auction didn't reveal all that much more.
    11. I need to read this thread completely but without photos showing it makes it hard to follow. While I'm waiting for the photos I'll post this...was on eBay not that log ago: I think when I discussed this on a Spanish forum, the consensus was that only the swords were made by Deschler and had been added to the cross but the cross itself was from another maker. Is that correct that Deschler was not a maker of the 4th class?
    12. Wish I could see the photos. Hamburg is not in Bavaria, is it? Just thinking which bars from my collection that I can add...
    13. ​Eric, from memory yours is the least worn example I have ever seen! No markings at all?
