03fahnen Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Hello, gentlemen, I would like to show you this sampler of passanten. They are those little pieces of the collection that I am passionate about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
91-old-inf-reg Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Very nice! Is this an example of what a salesman would have in his shop? Similar to the samples of award ribbons? I know the Kingdom of Württemberg also had their own unique passanten, thus the next logical question to be asked is, what other German States had their own unique passanten. I can assume that the Grand Dukedoms, Duchies, and principalities all used the Prussian passanten, however, the Grand Duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin has been know to have their own rules and unique uniform pieces that where adhered too, was this another example of this? I know that paradeschärpes where often unique to their state, was this also the case? Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
03fahnen Posted October 31, 2021 Author Share Posted October 31, 2021 I don't know exactly how many states had different "passanten". Württemberg did have its own model. Württemberg ausser Dinenst: The Imperial Navy also had its own particular model: Here is an example of the personal uniform of S.M. Alfonso XIII. King of Spain, à la suite der Marine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bayern Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 I believe that the officers of the German States with Militaerkonvention with Prussia weared Prussian Passants and silver flecked with black shoulder boards. I am referring to those States that have either a unique Regiment or only a Bataillon into a Prussian regiment, Mecklenburg was apart , Brunswick too , your collection of original samples is great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
