    1. Of course, but without an EK2 it is not possible, unless he only wore it in the buttonhole.
    2. Jason, you got this spange from Barry at emedals? I looked at this one closely, but found the combination unlikely, although the bar certainly looks genuine.
    3. Examples of Prussian orders with brilliants are out there, but are very scarce. Thies auctions them on occasion. I believe they were made as special presentation pieces for high-ranking recipients or members of a royal house. Having said that, better pictures would be in order to make any judgement on this one.
    4. Right, some towns in Brazil such as Blumenau look like Black Forest villages.
    5. Nice 'other ranks' bar, and an attractive way of mounting the Baden Verdienstmedaille.
    6. Rick, I will get good scans up as soon as I have it in hand. And Don, I will let you know if I decide to move it along.
    7. Gaston, I managed to get the autographed postcard from this group, but unfortunately nothing else, although I was bidding on several documents.
    8. I know what you mean, Don, things were looking a little iffy on getting this one, but I thought it had potential as a highly unusual combo. Of course ID'ing it would be great.
    9. I have a document issued to an Oberst von Bose, who was the Chef of the Abteilung fuer die Armee-Angelegenheiten im Kriegs-Ministerium in 1863. If anyone could provide biographical details, it would be greatly appreciated.
    10. I am the buyer of this bar, although it is certainly not my main area of interest. The medals are attached to the back not via hooks but have been stitched on. It all looks period, although a bit of a dog's breakfast. I don't have it in hand yet.
    11. Hi Matt, That is an interesting spange. I have a large Godet bar with this decoration on it, it is slightly different from the one you posted and something I bought as part of a larger purchase. It was shown in a previous thread by Noor, perhaps someone with more computer skills than I can dredge it up.
    12. Junk. Not to be confused with ebay seller Ordenssammler, who is a good guy.
    13. The combination is certainly okay, but the mounting seems very chaotic, and the ribbons look very fresh. Have you looked at it under black light? The value of the decorations would be about 800.00.
