Hello Wanted ! I am searching any spicked helmet with "JR 55" regimental marking ! Thanks

Here is a helmet which didn't exist anymore in 1914, the helmet of the very small principauty of Schaumburg Lippe, 50 000 inhabitants. Until 1897, mens of this country used to serve in the JR55/IIIB. The classical prussian helmet wears a specific Landkokarde, the Schaumburg-Lippe Landkokarde...

The gun carriage is less large than a 15 cm Kanone in Schirmlafette

A great thanks for your help ! I will try it.

Funny to put an german barrel in a former german speaking city! I tried some years ago to contact the city council to have some informations about this barrel, but I had no answer...

Yes I am confused too, I posted too fastly. 2nd and 3rd are Schirmlafette ! Sorry

Very nice helmet with amazing markings. Unfortunately impossible to find the owner in the Verlustlisten

Soory, I have just realized that I forgot to make my post before I went on Holydays. I will do it the evening and ys it is the famous 15 KiSL. I have lots of pictures, I will put them.

Very amazing. Better than the french museum La Pompelle in Reims !

Hello A little up. I am interesting by all types of troop Uberzug :D

Nice. I am still waiting for a baden red number Uberzug !

I was too in thé source museum some months ago and noticed that some regimentals marking don't fit with the wappen. For instance a Jr 96 wappen on a helmet with à FAR marking... Most of the mecklenburg helmets have a bavarian spike. So be careful

Very nice. What are thé two plates in the background ? Parts of graves ?

Very interesting. The 8/8 Batterie has very uncommon guns, 15 cm Kanone in Schirmlafette, a gun with an armored carriage which looks like naval gun. It can move with special truck on rail or on road with a steaming tractor. I will pu some pictures when I have time

So, we must be very careful with such scare helmets...

I do agree with the other members. Be careful, if you buy one single Pickel, it won't stop at this number. Others pickels will necessarily follow !
