Time for this nice tschapka to find a new home. Visor is no longer sewn to the body but still attached. Visor slightly misshapen. Removeable mortarboard has metal surface wrinkles around base. Mortarboard bayonet fitting very tight with no play. Money back guarantee minus shipping if you are...

As promised here are the photos of items identified to the estate of von Ramin. I am hesitant to say that the ulanka was actually owned by von Ramin. While it was sold as being from his estate, it lacks a laundry or owners mark. It could have been his or a family members. It could have been...

Bidding 2024 farewell, I will share my display to a Leutnant wearing a rather battered and poor Shako along with a very nice uberrock. Note the early style button placement which mimics the Ulanen uhlanka as it widens at the top to a wide V style. Also notice the black sleeve ends. Included in...

Folks, May I present something you probably may not have ever seen or will ever see again in a set of groupings. A completely new wappen and shoulderstraps to the same unit in the span of 15 years. On the left, we have a pre- January 24th 1899 Helmet and Waffenrock to a Sergeant in DR9 On the...

Hello Everyone, Looking to purchase a pair of wappen posts with retaining nuts. If you have a broken officers wappen that has the retaining nuts that would work. Please let me know. John

Would anyone have a listing for this officer? I believe it to be: Kurrrasier Regiment 4 E (?) Hoffman ? 3 Eskadron 1909 Thank for any help! John

May I present my feldgrau Officer Schirmmutze and EM Krätzchen for either the GdK or KR 4 regiments. The Krätzchen is from Karel's collection. I thought it paired with an Officers Schirmmutze would make a fitting tribute to him. Notice that this private purchase has a separate lower band which...

Offering for sale this Attila from my collection. This is a duplicate, so this one is looking for a new home. I would rate this Attila a 3.5 out 5. Unmarked, no stampings or any other ID marks. It has a couple of pencil head size moth holes, some wear on the back of the sleeve cord as shown...

My example of Garde Reiter Officer pre pickelhaube. Enjoy!

Switching to Infantry:

One of the toggle buttons fell off in my hand. Didn't get a chance to sew it back on. Private purchase unstamped attila.

Here is a rather rare waffenrock. You can see it's use in CptBob's post here: https://www.pickelhaubes.com/xf/threads/garde-kurassier-regiment-group-photo-1913.16341/

Folks, May I present something that we almost always see in photographs but rarely see in color. It's a very well marked Drillich. I must also beg your indulgence for the visor cap as I believe it to be a Husaren #8 but it's almost exactly the same colors as the UR16 one. Enjoy, John

Gents, Does anyone have any info on Heinrich Dautzenberger? He entered service with the Saxon Uhlans in 1904 as an officer candidate (Fähnrich) and made Lieutenant in 1905. By war’s end in 1918 he might have been a Rittmeister (Captain). I was only able to find a 1911 Rangliste entry of...
