Hello Claudio, General Hermann Freiherr von Vietinghoff gen. Scheel was not the son of the previous general. Hermann Freiherr von Vietinghoff genannt Scheel (1829–1905) had 6 children, only two of them pursuing a military career: - Alfred Alexander Gustav Konrad Guido - Oberstleutnant a. D. (Geb. Wahlstatt 26.06.1856 – Gest. Görlitz 29.01.1933) - Georg Willibald Gustav Adolf Franz Bernhard - Oberst und Kommandeur der 5. Garde-Infanterie-Brigade (Geb. Berlin 08.07.1862 – Gefallen bei Poelkappelle vor Ypern 21.09.1916)

Thank you very much GdC26 for your interest. When I saw these embroidery, I did not pay close attention to it, and thought it was a variant of the Prussian embroidery. But I was blinded by the amount of embroidery that was offered (I bid for almost all of them, thinking that with the barbarity that it offered I would take them home, and I could only get two, and not even the ones that interested me the most) Now I think that the type of embroidery is French, of the model that I show in this image and photograph. But as I said before, I have only seen them with a black background. I don't think they are copies, the quality of the embroidery is quite good. But you never know...

Hi, I recently bought a set that was theoretically from a Prussian general. The catalog description read: Preussen: Effekten eines Generals. 1.) Kragen: Ponceau rot, mit goldener Metallfadenstickerei, 2.) Paar Aufschläge: Ponceau rot, mit goldener Metallfadenstickerei, je schwarz unterfüttert But once the passion is over, and seen in more detail, I am sure they are not Prussians, but French (from the embroidery design). But I have never seen this type of embroidery on a red background. Does anyone have any idea what the uniform of these embroidery is?

It is difficult to know how the different elements of the batches with flags came together. With the Manteuffel-Dragoons veterans flag came a "Fahnenspitze" with the initials FR and the inscription 1762. from the time of Frederick the Great, so it shouldn't have been in this set either. In Lot 1542: A standard of the Uhlan Regiment "Grand Duke Friedrich von Baden" (Rhenish) No. 7, circa 1900. None of the elements accompanying the Standard pertain to that regiment. As for the Centennial Band, there were several regiments that had been founded in 1941 but only the two Leib-husaren regiments received their distinction in 1841, the date that appears after the initials of FW IV. (by AKO of 04/29/1941) The other units with the inscription "ERRICHTET 1741" Pi.Batls.3 Granted by AKO of 01/08/1876 for what behind the F.II. The date was 1876. Hus.Rgt. 4 Granted by AKO of 01/24/1895 for which behind the F.II. the date was 1895 The commemorative ribbon of the 1870 campaign of one of the Leib-husren-tegiment regiments, was sold by Carsten Zeige in 2018; Los 401Fahnenband für den Krieg gegen Frankreich "1870/1871" der Standarte des Leib-Husaren-Regts. Nr. 1. Seidenband der Kriegsdenkmünze 1870/71 mit 13 Fahnenbandspangen (davon 6 mit rückseitiger Datumsgravur), diese Messing vergoldet, verzierte Endglieder mit anhängender Quaste. Das Fahnenband wurde den Leib-Husaren am 18. August 1895 mit den Gefechtsspangen verliehen. Die Standarte stand bis zum 2. Weltkrieg im Dienstgebäude des General-Kds. II. AK in Stettin.
