    13. Thank you to all you gentlemen for your ,if i may ask one more thing .This card would have been written by a collector for his collection so it could have been after WW1 or WW2??
    14. Hi Jens Thank you very much but I don't read German could you repeat it in English.Also would this style of writing been in use during WW2 as this is supposed to be on a tag on a captured cap from WW1? Thanks Rob

    17. Am looking at trying to ID these collar tabs.Any help would be of great help.Also the type of tunic it it? Thanks Rob
    18. I think this would not be covered and if sold to a collector outside of Australia there would be no problems.But as this group is so complete and I would imagine one would not see a complete grouping again it will sell in Australia and from what I hear around the traps that it, and the other lots will more than likely end up at the AWM (Australian War Memorial) which is not a museum but it would be on show at some stage.I think our friend KS will be donating it once again like the VC's he has bought an donated to the AWM. Regards Rob
    19. Hi Kevin yes a lovely complete grouping ,I know of a least 3 collectors that would be hoping they could get them and 1 would be me they are the holy grail for us as a Navel group . Here is a link to the auction page http://www.noble.com.au/auctions/lot?id=311719 for others to view. Regards Rob
    20. If this is a complete group well you could be looking at approx $35K to $40K as there is one forsale in a auction in Australia at this price coming up in Nov. Rob
    21. Thanks Joe I can see why people are leaning towards British but I also see your point about the Belgium angle but there tress at the bottom has me in a quander as that I have not seen before ? Thanks Rob
    22. Joe thanks for putting up the photo's and putting up with me it's just want to be correct in what it is. The width at the base of the strap is 5cm and at the top 4cm color is olive/brown and rough wool texture the braid is hand sewn on . Just wondering if it may be Turkish ?? Rob and thanks again for your time and effort.
