Gary B

Hmmm, looks like we will be racing agasint one another to get the SHD officer version....also need a GL set!

Gary B

Hi Paul,

I have only seen a few pair of these insignia. I think you think they are easy to find since you HAVE all of them!

Gary B

One more pair for tonight...

My sole Olympic addition to this thread....

Red Cross 2nd model.

Hi,

I already posted these in another section of the forum but thought they would go better here.

Gary B

Hi,

One more medal bar for my collection.

Gary B

One more set. A hard to find pair of LSW tabs.

Gary B

Dear Don,

I love the ones with the makers labels!

Gary B

The back

John,

Thanks for your speedy reply...as always.

Gary B

I thought John might be trying to slip in a GWL Pilot badge.....

For comparison can somebody put the FLL besides a GWL??

Thanks.

Gary B

Hi,

Thanks for the comments. It is indeed a beautiful bar, one of the best I have in my colleciton. One can really get an appreciation of the quality of German military tailors holding this bar; pictures dont do it justice.

Yes, Paul it is a Heer bar.

Don, one thing I have learned in the past several years is that on some pieces you just have to buy on instinct. I cant tell you how many pieces I have let slip thru my fingers while I was thinking about it. But the good thing about this hobbby is that there will be something similar come along in the future. Hope you are the first one on that one!

FKNORR, the piece was in a thread on another forum.

Hi,

Here is a nice bar that was named to an Oberst Schmidt/z (cant read the writing on the card)

Gary

Hi,

Thanks for the comments....now to just find an officer pair...

Gary B

Hi Paul,

I just got the machine embroidered set today. I have had the other set for about a month. I iwll have to get back to the safe to get a close up of the chain stiched set.

Hope you had a good time at the beach.

Gary B

Nice!

Can you please post close ups of the chain stiched set?

When did you receive these?

Machine Embroidered

Here are 2 variations of the rare SHD tabs....1st up is Chain stitched version.

Gary B

Dear Paul,

Nice combo. I PMed you.

Gary B

Dear Paul,

Can you post a reverse of thaat medal bar?

Gary B

Hi Rick,

I might have missed that thread.....but I am always open to new views/opinions

For what it is worth, Detlev has sold these in the past.

Gary

Dear Rick,

This stamped version is an accepted variation, as far as I know. I have an identical one in my collection. I have only seen these variations in silver. The catch, if it were present on the piece shown, should be a flat wire stock type.

Gary B

Hi guys,

Thanks for the comments!

Actually, Rick, I did get these in a batch of 3! It seems like it either rains or pours! It had been quite sometime since I had bought a medal bar and then these all popped up at once. Needless to say they also hurt my wallet! But I knew I would most likely never see a Mine Rescue Service medal in many years so I jumped at the opportunity.

The Mine bar is in the safe now but the backing is the yellow wool that I have seen on other single bars, ususally NSDAP 10 year awards. Nothing "glows", ribbon condition mathces rest of mount. Just the stuff one looks for!
