Guest Rick Research Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Wowee!!! That's a "short form" wear-- "nothing else" 1870 EK2 AND 1914 BAR [attachmentid=10788]BTW, if I found this Cross loose, I'd be the first to say "NO way! Where are the rest of his medals? Nobody would have only worn ONE like this!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deruelle Posted September 15, 2005 Author Share Posted September 15, 2005 Hi, Received today, the card of Generalleutnant Kneussl. Look at the ribbon bar, not the standart but bigger thant usual. Does anyone collect Imperial postcards ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulsterman Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 (edited) I just bought this one on ebay last month, but I think it is a repro. Edited September 16, 2005 by Ulsterman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Why? Does it glow electric blue under a blacklight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deruelle Posted September 16, 2005 Author Share Posted September 16, 2005 I have bought the same photo last year, the same.Christophe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 I'm lost. Does YOURS glow blue under blacklight? Is this being photographically recopied now with the exact same developing flaws? Multiple original prints of the same original photo aren't surprising. WHY is there any question of being fake?

Deruelle Posted September 17, 2005 Author Share Posted September 17, 2005 My exemplar is an original postcard. I never heard about fake postcards. I know some people made a copy of original photos, but it is not the same. I have more than 1200 postcards in my collection, all of them are originals.Christophe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulsterman Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 I just bought this one on ebay last month, but I think it is a repro.←It glows and it was done on a photo quality scanner and pasted on to an older cardboard backing. I suspect the backing originally had another less exciting picture on it. I might never have known except when it arrived the center of the picture underneath was loose.

Guest Rick Research Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Bad news, but thanks! Recently many FAKE Imperial German cabinet photos have also been appearing, the small size on heavy cardboard backing with the photographer's name, prizes won and so on, on reverse-- ALL completely fake and new-- the "sandwich" of paper used in making the fraudulent backings glows blue from the edges of the usual thick cardboard brown finished backings. I have seen these from obscure and exotic "1850s" subjects right up to the most boringly ordinary 1913 buck-private types.I am also seeing vast numbers of phony Soviet "personnel file" photos (once available literally by the brown paper market bag full) on a variety of papers (crinkle edge, plain edge and so on) for dissimilitude, but sharing the SAME reverse "stamps" filled in with incorrect information... those are mainly Super Heroes with enormous awards and are taken from newsprint-- under a magnifier the dot patterns show which are not there in real photographs.So, now we have to juggle black lights for every single photo, too.

Bob Hunter Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Only recently have I begun to dabble with postcards and photos, mainly to get a better look at ribbon bars and medal bars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
