I just got this in today .
This helmet came from the old-time collection of Bill Stevens
This helmet along with many others of the Stevens collection
was the basis for the book on spiked helmets by Eric. J.

and I saw that Blue Prussian Line Infantry flag
That was back before I had a flag in my collection

Here is a great Grenadier Regt 1 photo that was sold before I saw it
A one year volunteer. It looks like he had just purchased his Waffenrock and helmet

I just got in a single epaulette for a reserve officer with the rank of Major for Wurttemberg I R 125
It is a massive size with very large Reich's crown and cypher.
The photo of it with a pair that I have from the same regiment
to show the size difference
Do any of our members know the date...
Prince August Wilhelm in the uniform of Grenadier Regt 3
Not often seen in this uniform. Most photos of him
are in the uniform of the 1 G R zu Fuss

uniforms and flag related .Also soldiers wearing Kaiser and King prizes .
