Bayern Posted March 13, 2020 Posted March 13, 2020 Hello Pralea ,.Hard to say but one possibility is A Tizedes of the Hungarian Crown Guard wearing walking out uniform used until 1896
Ian Posted March 13, 2020 Posted March 13, 2020 (edited) The rank looks more like rosettes than stars to m. I suspect he is some sort of Hungarian Beamte - Oberleutnant/Fohadnagyok equivalent. Theses rosettes were progressively introduced from approx. Dec 1909. Edited March 13, 2020 by Ian Additional Info 1
Bayern Posted March 14, 2020 Posted March 14, 2020 Ian ,after i looked again the photo i must agree with you .the man wears Tisztviseloi rozsacska on the collar , 1909 pattern regarding the branch of service ,one possibility is Veterinarian ;Allatorvos , another Pharmacist , or Proviant Fohadnagy . 1
