Thanks to allHi, I agree - probably the Inf.-Rgt. Nr.25, established 1813 and from April 1910 in Aachen.
Great picture Steve! Greetings Jens
I checked my collection of Redlin Fahna reference platesThanks to all
Redlin did a great job on his series of Prussian flags
In some cases he did the Sakular Banner in detail
BUT , not all of them
I will see if Redlin did the Sakular for I R 25
also, in cases of the early regiments, each Sakular Banner was different
per each Batl.
Thanks to Karl B. for this photo

Steve,...
so I have no real proof that it is I R 25
....
JensSteve,
unfortunately I no longer have the plates by Reinhold Redlin "Preußische Fahnen und Standarten".
And you are right, unfortunately there is no comprehensive source / literature what exactly was written on all the banners.
But I think that what we can seen on the card (Schild Verlag) should be enough to confirm the Inf.-Rgt. Nr.25.
Thanks and best regards, Jens
Thanks for that informationHi Steve,
There is no doubt that it is one of the flags of the 25th Infantry Regiment. But at the moment it is impossible to determine the battalion. It could be as it appears on the color plate of the I Battalion.
The history of the regiment in its preamble defines it as "Die Infanterie des v.Lützowschen Frei-Corps"
I don't think there is a complete collection with all the centennial bands.
I have a compilation of all the known Sakular Fahnenband made by Hans Joachin Ulrich, (author of Soldaten im Bunten Rock - Stuttgart 1970) a friend of Redlin. and there are several regiments without data.
Steve,...
I have some of those cards by Schild Verlag
but I did not think to check them
I maybe even have that card ?
...
My pleasure, Steve! It went to a great home!Thanks to all
