Merci Clovis! Une Belle photo historique, 150 Ans plus gard. June 2th coming from Verdun-sur-Meuse I had to pick-up mon épouse and her sisters at Metz earlier as planned. Unfortunately there wasn't time left to visit the monuments along the D903 however visit Musée de Gravelotte the Friday...

Goh Francis, just got back from Manhattan, I could ordered locally and bring it over. However, if this could help you to avoid shipping costs and you can wait patiently until mid-October, our son (living at the East Coast) will be visiting then Europe with spouse and friends. In this case and...

Correct, it's less than 60kms (37mls) and Pompelle closes at 18h. You better visit Novion Porcien from the first moment on as the museum is frequently visited by school classes.

Visiting Pompelle last March on my way to Historia Münsingen. First 3 pictures = the big mix display without any info. (no problem for haube-dummies:rolleyes:...) The last photos = my visit at Pompelle on 2007.

Hello JustinG, finally got the old picture (1985) A hard plastic flexible display holder, fits for all my helmplates or buckles. At first wappens and buckles were framed in wooden displays but then I lost some interest. So I ‘unboxed’ said items and they’re replaced from time to time as I...

Thank you JustinG, will revert on this subject as pictures needed. Hava nice X-mas eve! Kind regards Martin

Same story here and thank you Zebedeus to remind me as I overlooked (or forget:rolleyes:) this Bambus-item during the years😊.

Merry Xmas and Happy & Healthy New Year to everyone and family!

It’s rather a mind-bogglingly thread! Thanks to the contributions from you all. I’m very happy to have only a JR115 wappen at least (yes, without scroll).

A nice marked one, love the buckles as well.
