A new one on me as well Zeb! I have never seen one of these before.

I’ve never seen an IR92 1872 Tschako before. Ein Traumstück!

There is right now an officer Tschako for sale: BRAUNSCHWEIG - INF.RGT.92 TSCHAKO FÜR EINEN RESERVEOFFIZIER

Excellent, I love these Tschakos. Very good photos, thanks for sharing.

Great helmets and Film Thank you for sharing Zeb!

 

[Zebedeus]

Thank you friends.
Has anyone noticed anything strange in the last picture?

 

[coert65]

I noticed that the feldzeichen of the middle Tschako has the colors reversed.

 

[Zebedeus]

Yes, Coert, you are right.
But there is another and bigger difference.

Totally cool.
Weitz has sold these through the years but I have always doubted there originality.
I would love to have these on my shelf.
Thanks for sharing !

Dear Steve,
I cant' tell you nothing. It must be a surprise... but I can give you an advice: you need to replace the mailbox with bigger one.

Now I can add a piece that sure is not common. Brunschweig had only a feld artillery battery. This unit wore until 1886 the tshako with a particular brass wappen. On the centre you can see the monogram W on the crossed cannons.
