    The makers sticker was on it when I bought the piece, does anyone have any views about whether it is a relevant maker? It's just that I've never seen a paper makers sticker so to speak.

    ehrenkreuz des bayerischen reichsbundes der weltkriegsteilnehmer, aka the 'brw' cross.

    the enamel on the arms is a beautiful shade of purple, reminiscent of the interior purple flocking seen in certain 1914 ek1 award boxes

    large size...55mm...the gilding on the arms has faded over time

    Bayerischer Kreigerbund 1874 Veteranen u. Militär-Verein THEILENHOFEN u. HILTERN [N46] - I'm using the catalog numbers from Jörg Nimmergut's EXCELLENT Abzeichen und Auszeichnungen Deutscher Kriegervereine 1800-1943. If you like veterans badges, I can not recommend this book too highly :)

    Bayerischer Krigerbund 1874 Veteranen und Krieger-Verein AHORNIS (D. Sxxerm, Nürnberg) [N44]. I'm hoping someone can help me with the correct spelling of the maker, I can't make out the second and third letters, hence the xx - thanks in advance for any assistance here gents!
