Paul C Posted February 22, 2015 Posted February 22, 2015 I have been helping to sell Rick Lundstrom's collection and will have a portion of his ribbon bar collection at the SOS in Louisville. Many of the bars that Rick used for his ribbon bar article on this forum will be available. I will be at a table with Stephen Previtera of Winidore.

(I won't even ask if any were from Tsingtau, China)
Brian R Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 Where is your table in the room? Have you considered a silent auction format ending at noon, or something similar? It was V55-57 last year - not sure if a change is in order.
Paul C Posted February 24, 2015 Author Posted February 24, 2015 I don't recall where Stephen Previtera's table is. It maybe list under Winidore Press. Stephen wrote the recent large flight badge book so his table will not be hard to find. While the auction maybe a nice idea it will be to hard to manage in a short period of time.
Paul C Posted March 12, 2015 Author Posted March 12, 2015 I have many bars remaining and will be putting together some photos this weekend.
Paul C Posted March 19, 2015 Author Posted March 19, 2015 I have created a PDF with scans of the remaining ribbon bars that are for sale. If anyone is interested send me a message with your email address and I'll send it to you.
JPL Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 Hi Paul,Are any of the remaining bars attributed to the WW1 Campaign in German East Africa?Jean-Paul
Paul C Posted March 20, 2015 Author Posted March 20, 2015 JPL, I can send you the PDF and you can look. I don't know exactly what you are looking for.
Rogi Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 If you could send me the PDF as well, it would be greatly appreciated.

Alan Posted March 25, 2015 Posted March 25, 2015 Hello Paul,Could you send me the PDF you have with Rick's bars.Many ThanksAlanach_melon@yahoo.com.au
lambert Posted March 25, 2015 Posted March 25, 2015 Hello Paul C.some still available? If you could send me the PDF as well.
Solomon Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 Ooooh, the ribbonbar in the lower right corner (Lippe-Detmold) I really like :-)
Solomon Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Also a very nice bar, but from Lippe-Detmold, not S-Lippe.
Claudius Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Speaking of Lippe... While Paul C was unpacking Rick's ribbon bars at SOS, I walked over to Craig Luther's table at the back wall of the main room.He was selling the extensive ribbon bar collection of a deceased Wisconsin collector. Luther bought the entire collection at an estate auction.I bought only this one S-Lippe bar (below) so I would still have enough money to buy some of Rick's bars later on from Paul C.As usual, the imperial and FK bars were underpriced, and any of the ones with HKs on them were overpriced. ">Nice ribbon bar. I really like the Legion Condor on the end. It is a Legion Condor ribbon?I wonder if the ribbon bar could be identified?
Solomon Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Nope, no Legion Condor...it´s Lippe-Detmold "Medaille auf den erstrittenen Thronanspruch 1905" (Lippe-Detmold Lawsuit medal 1905), quite rare medal (176 awards).
Claudius Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Nope, no Legion Condor...it´s Lippe-Detmold "Medaille auf den erstrittenen Thronanspruch 1905" (Lippe-Detmold Lawsuit medal 1905), quite rare medal (176 awards). DOE 1181 / H&S 755 ?Wow. A very unusual medal indeed. Because of today's date I might believe you are trying to fool me, but the evidence is there. Do you know any more about the medal than what is in H&S?
Solomon Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 Considering that only 176 of the Erstrittenen Thronanspruch Lippe-Detmold commemorative medals were issued, the recipient could at least be narrowed down.The fourth ribbon is undoubtedly the Lippe Militaer Verdienst Medaille mit Genfer Kreuz and that, combined with the Hausorden, should narrow it down even further, I should think. I did a small check already on yesterday, but it isn´t as easy as it looks like.There are no rolls for the Schaumburg award and there are different possibilities for the Hausorden award, e.g. 4th class, but also silver or golden merit cross.I would consider the following facts:The person was born after 1880, due to missing Centenar medal and active participation in WW 1.He was from the principal Lippe-Detmold.But the ribbon in the middle (white-red) drives me crazy...I would consider it as "Medaille für deutsche Volkspflege" from 1939, does anybody agree?If this is correct, the identification might get really difficult, because the Hausorden was awarded after 1918, too.But I don´t have these rolls.RegardsRoman
Solomon Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 By accident I purchased on today a very nice medalbar, where the mentioned medal in mounted...see scan :-)
Solomon Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 By accident? This is the kind of "accident" I want to make. Looks like a really nice bar! Maybe you can post a photo of the entire bar for us to see. Ok, I will do it in a seperate threat.Back to the ribbonbar, I agree with Militärerdienstmedaille mit Genfer Kreuz, because it would fit to the Prussian Red Cross medal, too.But still no idea on the candidate...
