    Well, Jim, I will try. George Seymore had a collection the likes of which we will never see again. Ralph Abercrombie has a most excellent one. Mine is just what it is, an accumulation of items that please me without the remarkable depth and dimension of other collections.

    Hi Bob,

    I understand what you're saying. BUT, you still have one fantastic (accumulation, gathering, set, whatever). As long as it brings you joy and keeps your interest peaked, that's what really counts.

    OK, Paul, let's start with #49. This is an extremely rare and original mounted Imperial German medal group to a Bavarian Police Officer. It consists of the WWI Honor Cross for Non-Combatants; The 1916 King Ludwig Cross: The rare Silver Honor Medal to the order of the Bavarian Crown (maker marked Losch); The Silver Honor Medal to the Bavarian Order of Saint Michael and the ultra rare Bavarian Twenty Year Police Long Service Cross. The group also has a 1930's era medal bar with clip on backs that appears not have been upgraded as the first bar still has the medals sewn in. It also has a rare matching ribbon bar in double furled south german style. I'm attaching close ups of the two really rare medals. Here is the Silver Honor Medal to the Order of the Bavarian Crown.
