christerd Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Got this card yesterday, thought it looked like a nice Navy Imperial Uniform But now when I look closer I am not so sure ? What in heavens name is he wearing? There is crown on his buttons , and a veru nice sword in his lap but is he German at all? Some written on the back , Meinen Leiber Bulzer ??? Anyone out there who could solve this mystery ? Christer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rick Research Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 soom in for a nice big closeup on the handle and guard of the sword-- the state insignia should show there for which kingdom he came from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chip Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 You can clearly see the crown on the Portepee, which is definitely Bavarian. There is also a resting lion motif on the clamshell portion of the grip.Chip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
