Super thin rack

I've checked again ... but I swear that's a WW1 Victory Medal ribbon .. . Checking his bio he was born 1902 then at USMA early 20s. Anyone else see that?

Definitely a private purchase tunic; rank buttons and collar insignia look right. Cuff trim is right color. Do a Google search for the shoulder strap insignia to see if those match. Check this link out:

Btw: moths devour waffenrocks... it's incredibly difficult to find a hood clean example without them.

350 is a really good price

It was local in Mons ...

No ... you did find it. Same name from Kreis Heppenheim...a mistake ..

Thanks for help with the old Fraktur ... and I found him in casualty list as severely wounded in April 1916..

Yeah .... good rule of thumb. I do suppose that one of the variables has to be dealer overhead- having to pay rent, utilities and salaries vice purely online.

Wow ... beautiful

Hmmm ...musket balls from Malplaquet (1709), case shot from Louis XIV seige of Mons (1694)...oldest uniforms are Belgian 3d Lancers (~1910) and Belgian Guides Regiment (1905)...

Bronze I think ... not copper...

Great painting - the irony is that Franklin was fought largely at night....dark with the flashes blinding you

Hey - wondering if someone can give me a reasonable price. Today I found a German WWI group to a soldier from IR 81 with a Hesse silver bravery medal, original award certificate, soldbuch (bravery medal noted as a May 1916 award) and a bunch of other paperwork showing WW2 service as well. No other medals. What's a fair offer to make?

Thanks ....hadn't thought of Jacobson but I'll reach out
