Gorgeous helmet Charles! Congratulations!

It's like a treasure chest!

Sweet!

Yes, that is from Adler's auction. One of my favorites.

It was very high on my wish list!

This has been a crazy busy week. Just getting time to snap a few photos this morning. I need to figure out where and how to display it. Thanks again Andrej!

I recently purchased a helmet from Brusik1. It arrived yesterday and I will echo the sentiments of some of the other buyers. The helmet was sent promptly after payment was made. It was well packaged and arrived safely. I am thrilled to have added it to my collection. Many thanks to the seller!

Thanks all!

1904? I guess that’s a few years ago for some of us. 😂

Unfortunately, the saber is missing the wire wraps on the grip, but it is a nice example. The state coat of arms on the guard is impressive. The saber was sold by a vendor in Stuttgart, so it could have been carried by a member of DR26.

Nice. Love the 13U epaulettes!

Looks good!

Nco’s would have a swordknot similar in construction to enlisted ones but the tassel and crown would be in the state colors. In the case of Bavaria, blue and white

Welcome. Nice sword! Looking forward to seeing some more Dragoner photos!

Nice. I like the painted wurttemberg colors on the riders lance flag

I try to keep the photo file size below 1megabyte. That size seems to work well

My great grandmother was born in Hanover and immigrated to the USA as a little girl. My avatar is a photo of her father not long before they left Germany. Hence my interest

Some of a series of postcards on the Royal Hanoverian Army, a subject area I've recently gotten interested in.

Love the collar and the cuffs.
