Wehrmacht Ribbon bar - painted on wood
erickn replied to webr55's topic in Wehrmacht Medals, Decorations & Awards
Thanks Guys, I'm glad you like it. IMO, wooden awards are not very common. Perhaps wood was the only material available at the time of necessity. I wish I knew where it came from. Only reported as made by a POW. Regards E. -

Hi Webr55, That is a very interesting ribbon bar you have. Here is another woodie, alledged POW manufactured. Regards, Erickn -
Very nice one Greg. The hooks are my favorite. Here is another example of the raised hallmark version like several others previously posted and seems to be the most practical of the various KMST fastening device systems. This one shows much wear to the raised hallmark features. E.

erickn replied to Motorhead's topic in Germany: All Eras: The Iron Cross
Hi Micha, This may not be an unusual combo but, I like the chicken-scratch "Otto Grub Lt.d.Res.Inf.Art.Regt.65". (Please pardon the poor images) Kind regards E. -

Hi John, I'm glad it meets your approval. I did see the Tag earlier up and it reminded me of this one. This has been a very enjoyable thread and I appreciate you taking the time to post so many wonderful Bars. The Tags make them complete and even more interesting. Regards E. (EK is non-magnetic, one piece, HB is magnetic) -

EK 1914 Little 800 domed favourite
erickn replied to Chris Boonzaier's topic in Germany: All Eras: The Iron Cross
Hi Chris, You are right it is a good match. By the straight-on images, it was difficult to see just how vaulted your EK is. That is why I photographed mine from the side for the full effect. The pin on your example appears to have been shortened. Nice cross. E. -

Hello Sir, Interesting chair that brings back some memories. Back in 1968 I visited a Monestary in southern Barvaria that had been occupied by Wehrmacht Troops. To my surprise, each of the very simple wooden chairs in the dining area and hat/coat racks sported a National Emblem stamped on the back. What was more interesting, the plates that were used on a daily basis were also Wehrmacht marked. Nice chair. E.
