Scarce Bavarian Badge....

[Chris Boonzaier]

... maybe not a rarity... but the 1913 Shooting Prize on Fieldgrey is a treat you really see.... a man from the 1st Bavarian Inf Regiment.... I would guess maybe 300 men wore this badge, and for less than half a year?

I meant 300 because 3 companies in the bavarian army had it... was issued in 1913 and could be worn for a year... so i assume by the end of 1914 that was the end of the road and they had to be taken off...
