Hauptmann Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Hi Gordon, Congratulations! She's a beaut!!!! First I've ever seen outside of illustrations in books and even those were just as part of general uniforms and such. I don't have a ton in my reference library on Imperial German uniforms... not for lack of wanting. I've always got my eye out. But I really love this piece. Another proud addition to your collection. Here's to many more! Thanks for sharing! Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon Williamson Posted March 18, 2010 Author Share Posted March 18, 2010 Been thinking of buying one for a while and finally decided to go for it. Helmut Weitze hsa a few of these at the moment. Quite range of different styles exist for these. ( i.e. Bavaria has lion heads instead of eagles and Armee-Korps Gorgets have a Roman numeral below a slightly smaller set of arabic numerals). Rather expensive though so this will most probably be the only Imperial one I'll buy - for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
