    I have added this ribbon bar to Konstantin von Alvensleben (1866-1943) to my collection.

    The awards are:

    1. Prussia: 1914 EK2
    2. Prussia: Red Eagle 4th with swords
    3. Baden: Zähringer Löwen with swords and oakleaves
    4. Germany: Hindenburg Cross with swords
    5. Germany: China Medal
    6. Baden: Regierungsjubiläumsmedaille in bronze
    7. Chile: Medal for German Instructors

    Does anyone have a photo of this particular von Alvensleben? A few internet searches have not turned up anything but his more famous forebears.

    I would be grateful for any photos or biographical information.

    Thank you.

    Beautiful bar, especially the Baden device on the Zahringen Lion ribbon!

    Thank you for rescuing this thread from obscurity, and also for your nice comment.

    I wish I could find a photo of this particular von Alvensleben.

    Can anyone suggest a good resource?

    There are more items in this group, which came from an attic in the USA and was identified by a friend of mine (not me).
