ixhs Posted December 29, 2016 Posted December 29, 2016 Hi - i need help: Is that shown piece a good genuine one, or is it a fake? Sorry, i have no better pic of the clasp. I think it is a 1st Form. Thanks for help!
dond Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 Looks like a nice Juncker 1st pattern spange to me.
Jim R Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 Yes Juncker first model and looks like the short vein style. Jim
ixhs Posted January 4, 2017 Author Posted January 4, 2017 (edited) ..and here we have the bar. Oberst (Generalmaj.) Walter Drück born: 26.4.1900 in Cannstatt (Stuttgart) died: 16.10.1970 in a car accident (he lived in the border region of Württemberg/Bayern in the near of Heidenheim) He got the silesian eagle for fighting in the east in 1919. The SMMM had to return as he got the golden one. He also was the youngest Kriegsfreiwilliger of his bataillon in the age of 15 years. He married Pauline Theodora von Mühlen in Finca Chulac (Guatemala) in 1923. I think he got his military merit medal for fighting in Verdun.http://en.ww2awards.com/person/3729 my best item of 2016. I bought it on 31st of december. Edited January 4, 2017 by ixhs
Jim R Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 Beautiful bar and I love the history behind the bar. Jim
ixhs Posted January 5, 2017 Author Posted January 5, 2017 (edited) Thanks Jim, and thank you for your help. The GMMM is a 333 marked one. The silesian eagle is the official version made of blackened iron. One of the hooks of the WH Spange is missing; the rest is OK Edited January 5, 2017 by ixhs
