    I recently got several Knottel prints, mostly of early Hannoverian units. This one was interesting because I have a document for a member of one of these Regiments in this period

    Hannover Riding School(?)

    The back of this has a note stating "1891 Hannover". It has quite the mix of Cavalry units. At least one from each Cavalry type(except JzP), many different Regiments. I'm guessing these are attendees of the Hannover Riding School. It's fun to try to guess which Regiments. My first cut: GKR...

    Kurassier Officer's Pallasch with Salm family Coat of Arms. Help with possible Ids.

    This is an Officer's version of the M54 Kurassier Pallasch. It was made by Damaschke. The blade is massive, about 37.75 inches long (about 96 cm) which would suggest it was made before 1896 when the Kurassier Pallasch blades were shortened. The really interesting thing is the Pommel Nut...

    Fancy IOD 89

    This was made by WKC for the Deutsche Offizier Verein (DOV) who would resell or present swords. Though it is not marked as such, it has a nice Damascus blade. The guard and pommel are very detailed. Even the reverse side of the Eagle and the inside of the knuckle bow are worked. The...
