I remember well our interesting discussion, Bruno (y) Another one: Philippe

Another small mostly unknown exception: the small state of Schaumburg-Lippe, whose recruits served in the III/JR55 and JB7. From 1867 to 1897, the white-red-blue cockade was worn on the left, the prussian on the right of the helmet. This feature disappeared on March 22, 1897, and the...

The Bückeburger Jäger wore te colors of Schaumburg-Lippe which were red and blue, nothing to do with Nassau.. Philippe

It will be very hard to find a better EM GFR! (y) Philippe

The cockades should be inverted ;) Nice helmet! The name my be Ruhland. A lot of Ruhland in the bavarian army...Do you maybe see a written unit number? Philippe

Great picts! The JR405 Überzug was pomeranian... The Busche says: Infanterie-Regiment Nr. 405 Das Regiment wurde am 10.6.1916 als „Infanterie-Regiment Stettin“ vom Stellv. Gen. Kdo. II. A.K. aufgestellt und am 6.7.1916 numeriert. Unterstellung: 202. I.Div. Kommandeur: Major Goltz (Gren.R.Nr...

Hi, JR167 ist not matching, cause its IIIB was in the other Mühlhausen, the one in Thüringen (not Mühlhausen in Elsass). I and IIB were in Kassel. But JR142 (Stab, I and IIIB) were in Mühlhausen in Elsass. IIB was in Müllheim in Baden (from 1908 on). Philippe

Welcome here from Nordfriesland / Schleswig-Holstein, BA-IX Land. Philippe

Thank you Sandy, what a pity....It seems there was a second one that was stuck on it... Sometimes you can nevertheless be successfull, even if the tag is not complete... This exemple of mine, JR75 Bremen. Philippe

Please, please, please Sandy, post some picts of the name tag that I can see in the shell 🙏 Thank you! Philippe

Yes, also known under the name "Providentiae Memor" 😁 This one in my little collection was at a time part of his collection. Philippe

Very strange to see the same name and first initial on two totally different items on sale at the same time. Just a coincidence? Philippe

However, the one on ebay is ugly, obviously a parts helmet... Philippe

Such thicker pens have obviously already existed...

Not a lot of guys with this name in the Verlustlisten, only 7. And 6 of them came from Hessen, one from Württemberg. Yes, you won´t track this guy in the VL because as you know, the Landsturm units were only involved far behind the front line, to guard the railway knots and prison camps. Philippe

Bruno, you have to decide! So you could sell me some "no-Dragoner" helmets that are taking too much place in your show room 😁 Philippe

I think to decypher the name "NOETZKE".... And first, F. Gorris?? Cool helmet by the way! Philippe

Hello Cloclo, We have here a pretty scarce unit stamp! Landsturm-Infanterie-Ausbildungs-Bataillon Darmstadt, XVIII.46. Well done! Philippe

What a curious behavior! One enters this forum, asks for an opinion, several erudite collectors give it, the gentleman disagrees and leaves as quickly as he came. So why ask? Hoping for confirmation of what he believes? Good luck 😁

Very hard to find.... This one is the same officer pattern, same size, but with bigger central hole for the M91 side post. It is originally placed on a named RJR 76 EM M95 helmet worn by a Vizefeldwebel with the function of an Offizierstellvertreter. Philippe
