    Hi,

    again here is an nice example from Lippe-Detmold:

    War merit cross Lippe-Detmold with original paper bag and document

    There were about 18.000 awards for combatans (white-red-yellow ribbon) and only about 1000 for non-combatants (white center on ribbon).

    The paper bag is an original (with a old repair on one side) and a name written with a pencil on its back ("Redeker").

    The document is also an original (but does not really match to the cross...i bought it seperate).

    I like very much its design :blush:

    On the reverse of the document you can find the statutes for the war merit cross ( eight paragraphs...).

    By the way the documents for the rare "war cross for heroic deeds" look very similar...

    My question:

    Does anybody own another paper bag for this cross? I?ve never seen a similar one...

    I?m quite sure that it is very rare, but other bags should exist...

    Greetings

    Solomon

    :Cat-Scratch: THAT is a beautiful :love::love: document!!! It is nice to see that SOME states went to the trouble and effort of making such a worthy recognition of its citizens' war services!
