    Looking for Garde Kürassier regiment officer epaulettes, Schirmmütze and equipment.

    Griffen Militaria ( griffenmilitaria.com) presently lists " Garde Cuirassier Regiment Officer"s Visor Cap" for $750. A dependable dealer in my experience.

    Looking for Garde Kürassier regiment officer epaulettes, Schirmmütze and equipment.

    This is how it starts! Buy a new uniform and then you want it as complete as possible : the hat ,the belt, the epaulettes ...... We have all been there ,I suppose, part of the fun of collecting. Kube just sold the schirmmütze that would have gone with your new tunic. There will be more eventually.

    A waffenrock for an officer of the Garde Kürassier Regiment

    I saw that one on Emedals website. I wish they had sold the medals, that didn't seem to go with an kürassier officer , in a separate sale. However, it is a nice uniform. Could the epaulettes also be for the Kürassier Regiment von Driesen Nr.4?

    Beautiful epaulettes ! I wish I had the 19th's to exchange. Are these the 1910 version or the larger type?

    Kube Auction

    Mystery solved. Never saw first invoice from Kube but the second one, upon my inquiry, did come in a "spam/junk" folder yesterday. 190 Euros in shipping fees , those books are heavy.

    Prussian Garde Grenadier Waffenrock

    Very nice ! I have one too but with a pair of Kaiser Franz Rgt.2 leutnant shoulder boards . I would prefer M1910 epaulettes. Happy hunting.

    Asking for help with identification.

    Should the #2 epaulettes have a black velvet underlay like the shoulder boards for Dragoon Regiment #2 have?

    The Old Way To Add To Your Collection

    I started with Kube with Auction 32/33 September 11, 1982 but I do have his catalogs Number 1,10 and 18 through 30/31 . He sold back issues at one time. The catalogs do make one long for the quantity and quality of his merchandise to say nothing about the prices! Other than late catalogs I have...

    Kube Auction

    Perhaps someone knows Herr Kube, why does he not have live online bidding like everyone else? Oh , I remember once during the height of COVID he had one. Am I missing something about the positive aspects of waiting for his catalog to show and and then mailing in your bids to Germany ? Yes...
