Jim R Posted July 13, 2007 Author Posted July 13, 2007 This collection is EKs made by L/II. All awards and packages (except EKII package (received EKII in this package)) are marked L/II. The EKI envelope is very rare. I have since added a case for the EKII Spange. If anyone has an EKI Spange and case for sale please contact me.
Jim R Posted July 13, 2007 Author Posted July 13, 2007 My EKI and WMC collection. Unfortunately I couldn't display the cases (each one has a case, except screwbacks). The makers of each one left to right top row to bottom:None, None, None, L59, 20, None, L13L15, L58 (screwback), 15 (screwback), L52(screwback), L13None, 100, None, None, None, NoneThe EKII is not marked and can't tell on the spange. These two were added to give balance to the collecton.
Jim R Posted July 13, 2007 Author Posted July 13, 2007 Thought I would share with you my porcelain and bronze figures. The first one I call a Luftwaffe Attack Eagle, it is Meissen and sculptured by Max Esser in 1930 and is titled ?Falcon bagging Pigeon?. It is 27 inches high and 14 inches wide and weighs about 44 lbs.
Jim R Posted July 13, 2007 Author Posted July 13, 2007 German WWII Soldier, made by Nymphenburg Porcelian. It is hard to see but there is an eagle with swastika above his right pocket. It is 10 inches tall.
Jim R Posted July 13, 2007 Author Posted July 13, 2007 My last piece is an 1870 bronze Russian soldier. It is 21 1/2 inches high with a 10 inch x 5 inch base. It was made by K.F. Verfel in Russia.

buellmeister Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 Jim, You certainly have an extensive and well displayed collection. I raise my hat in admiration!Regards,Joel
Paul R Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 I agree!! Great collection you have there!! I love the 1870 statue!!
Crimean Bob Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 You have a very nice bronze figure there, unfortunately it seems that at some point it has been polished removing the original factory applied patina. Bronzes should never be that color, however there are products available that will take it back to a brown or black color with a little work.Bob
