References images for Haubes from Mulhouse/Mülhausen regiments

[Vendémiaire]

I collect around German regiments based in Mulhouse (Mülhausen) in Alsace, where my family is originally from. To my knowledge (feel free to correct me) those regiments are:

• 3 Badisches Dragoner-Regiment „Prinz Karl“ Nr. 22
• Jäger Regiment zu Pferde No. 5
• IR 112 and IR 167

Starting to move into helmets (I was in Steins). I was wondering if anyone had Haubes for these regiments and was willing to share pictures/info? I am passively searching for some and want to have some reference images for what to look for.

Best,
Will

Fantastic. The "Berlin White" wash on the griffin is spectacular.

You are absolutely right, Steve, but why? Camouflage, okay, it makes sense, but why only at JzP5?

I never knew the reason
and not sure that anyone ever said that they knew
but I read about it and knew about it

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).
