Claudio Posted August 31, 2008 Author Share Posted August 31, 2008 Dear forumites,On H?sken (Galerie d'histoire) online catalogue I found a completely similar bar, also construction and color of the fabric on the back, of my brother's bar. It comes with urkunden and a name: Baumeister Adolf Krauss.Here's the description of the dealer's bar for sale with documents:NACHLASS DES F?RSTLICHEN BAUMEISTERS ADOLF KRAUSS: Gro?e Ordensspange mit 4 Auszeichnungen: Kreuz f?r treue Dienste 1914 am Band f?r Nichtk?mpfer / Goldenes Verdienstkreuz des Orden des Ehrenkreuzes (Gold) / Silbernes Verdienstkreuz des Orden des Ehrenkreuzes / Erinnerungsmedaille an die silberne Hochzeit 1907.Beiliegend die Verleihungsurkunden zum silbernen Ehrenkreuz 1901 mit eigh. Unterschrift F?rst "Georg", zum goldenen Ehrenkreuz 1903 mit eigh. Unterschrift F?rst "Georg", zur Erinnerungsmedaille an die silberne Hochzeit 1907 sowie Ernennungsurkunde zum "Hof-Maurermeister" 1870 und zum "F?rstlichen Baumeister" 1906 u.a. Urkunden gefaltetDo you think that this combination unique is? I think so, also because the non combattant awards are extremely rare.I'd really appreciate your comments on this.Ciao,Claudio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul C Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 Great bar. The Sch-Lippe NK is extremely rare. I have one on a bar and contacted the Sch-Lippe archives to try and get the award rolls but they do not have anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rick Research Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 Claudio-- there are, unfortunately 27 double Merit Cross recipients for whom I have no other data to eliminate them, from the Rolls. Actually, without this new data on Krauss (SVK 10.10.01, GVK 11.10.03) it would have been 28. Soooooooo close!If the noncombatant Cross for Loyal Service in War and 1907 Jubilee RECEIPTS (individual slips of paper, no "rolls) ever get done.... Thanks to our Solomon here, that HAS been done for several "invisible" DETMOLD awards which will appear in that half of Lippe's awards rolls books when both are published next in the Krause-Lundstr?m series.Someday... someday.In the meantime: EXULT in your Gold Merit Cross. I mean, set your alarm for 3 AM every single night and get up and that you HAVE one.Ohhhhh yes. THAT rare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
