Solomon Posted February 11, 2019 Posted February 11, 2019 Hi, this nice little group I got recently from his granddaughter... Werner Eichhorst got on 23rd June 1917 his Golden Merit Medal Leopold-order Lippe-Detmold, as No. 41 of the list (out of only 84 awards in total). He was working as a decorator and acc. to the information, I got from his granddaughter, he was producing cussions etc. Following this information it is quite likely, that he supplied a new bed for the ruling Prince Leopold IV. zu Lippe-Detmold. Surprisingly he skipped the Bronze and Silver medal and directly got the Golden one. The Golden merit medal was his only award, during his military service 1883-1886 he received nothing. The group consists of the medal, a passport, his Militärpass and the Auszug aus der Kriegsstammrolle. Unfortunately the award document or case for the medal didn´t survive... I hope you like it.... Regards Roman
Solomon Posted February 11, 2019 Author Posted February 11, 2019 Just recognized, that I forgot to provide the evidence :-) Here is Eichhorst´s role-entry....

1812 Overture Posted February 12, 2019 Posted February 12, 2019 It looks great, but I want to know which country's badge is it? Lieber?
