ccj Posted December 16, 2007 Posted December 16, 2007 A very nice 1910 tunic for a General Staff major. It has the 1915 'Kolbenlitzen' tabs. Inside the cuff of one sleeve is a pocket. This tunic is almost exactly like the one on page 549 of Kraus' book. I tried many times to sell it a couple of years ago because I have this one and a super nice Majors Kleiner Rock and trousers. I'm glad I DIDN'T sell/trade it now. I've been foolish in the past and have sold many nice tunics, caps, spikes, orders, etc...I need ot find a visor cap and a nice brocade or field belt for this tunic. EKI NEEDED!!!
Paul C Posted December 17, 2007 Posted December 17, 2007 Charles, I notice two nice ribbon bars on the tunics. Are they original to the piece or original bars? Could you post a pic of the front and back of each?
Paul R Posted December 17, 2007 Posted December 17, 2007 That is a beautiful tunic. Can you please post some closeups of the shoulder boards and litzen?

Paul R Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 I am not into Imperial Cloth(yet), but this one could make a convert out of me!

ccj Posted December 21, 2007 Author Posted December 21, 2007 CharlesHere's the proper schirmmutze for your tunic...DaveDAVE, you are alive! That's a super sharp visor. That's what I've been searching for these many years. That's the same for a ulan Rgt 14 or maybe Fragoon Rgt 12. Charles
dwmosher Posted December 22, 2007 Posted December 22, 2007 Charles:Yes, this cap could also be used for UR 14, but for officers of DR 11 and 12, the band color would be more of a maroon shade and the band and piping would be in velvet. Dave

Not mine but from another post on the forum that I can no longer find.
