landsknechte Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 The latest addition to my collection, easily one of the largest non-Austrian bars that I've ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David S Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 Nice bar From the 1897 Centenary to the Hindenburg Cross, with stops including the Prussian War Service and Red Cross, not to leave out the Bavarians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Taylor Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 Very nice one, congrats on the addition! Jason- Watch out, you just may have been bitten by the ribbon bar bug & theres no cure except for wads of cash & lots of sleepless nights dreaming about that next purchase!!

Guest Rick Research Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 Yup, yet another of the Beamten. NOT in Intendance branch, nor a Paymaster. The "white" ribbon is all pale blue Chris says, which with the 1897 (NOT widely issued to Bavarians) and Prussian Red Cross and War Effort awards suggests some War Ministry minion with close working ties with the north.There were a number of supply/pay Prussian Crown Order 4th Class holders with BMVK1Xs and BMVK1XmKrs because of the "insult these guys" Bavarian WW1 awards policy, but none holding the 1897 or two wartime Prussian awards. The all pale blue could also be a Prussian Crown Order MEDAL-- I doubt with the other Prussian awards that it was a W?rttemberg Friedrich Order or Medal peacetime.
