Various german orders...

[pinpon590]

Hello Gentlemens,

I have done this pictures today, with all germans WW1 orders I actually possess...

My collection is humble (especially considering some very very complete and nice collection in this forum), but I hope reach one of my objective : possess at least one class of each order used during WW1... One day...

For my (your ?) eyes pleasure !

Nice collection! This picture could be used also to illustrate the cover of a German Imperial order books...

Ciao,

Claudio

Ow! I mean WOW! But at first, it hurt my eyes. All those wonderful orders and medals together in one tight area. You have some great awards.

Thank you for showing them.

[Chris Liontas]

This one of other project...

There is not recent book in french about WW1 german awards... So maybe... I'd like to write one, but still missing 40 or 50 pictures to illustrate and make an exhaustive list (especially rare orders and very rare medals...)

I hope also bring to completion this project... Maybe for 2014 ! )

Some really nice things in that group. Is the St. Henry a converted Ritterkreuz from the interwar period?

[Valter]

Not humble at all! A great collection and thanks for showing us!

And sorry, a bit : which book (in English) do you recommend about imperial decorations? I'm a very beginner in imperial field, so I'm looking for some basic introduction guide. I have Niemann's and Nimmerguts catalogs, but that's not it.

Thanks in advance for any tips, Valter

Yes, a Scharffenberg knight cross, converted, but after 1950's...
