Still hope a solution will be found, FEW is a 'treasure room' of related WW1-items all kinds. Bregards, Marty

Hé Coert, Fyi., I ordered the catalog on 03/18 and received finally following e-mail: QT .....vielen Dank für Ihre E-Mail. Ihre Bestellung wurde bearbeitet und es ist alles in Ordnung damit. Der Katalog wurde verschickt und wird voraussichtlich bis Ende dieser oder Anfang nächster Woche bei...

In 2007 I've visited Fort de la Pompelle and this are the only 3 pictures left of my visit. This was only a fraction of the collection.

@ Coert, thanks for the link(y)! @ James: still waiting. ---- Karel shared quite some of his outstanding collection on the 'ForumEersteWereldoorlog', but I'm truly surprised and amazed seeing the complete Van Bosstraeten Collection now, unbelievable..... Never met Karel in person but I had...

…so, you need to buy a second battery unit;). No joke, we met already e-bikers having an extra battery in reserve on their cycling trip:). Rgds Marty

Wishing you a good recovery, Brian and most important of all: don’t force it, be patient. I know, three months seems long and perhaps you’ll face some dull moments, but a good recovery is essential for your future, I can tell you. We’ve been in basketball and badminton for a very long time and...

Congratz! Never seen such an amazing GdC collection before, love the Stein. Brgds, Marty

Tx for your info,Steve. But crescents are yellow metal and no trace of a cypher. Got these as a present from a late uncle together with a Pouch or Kartuschkasten . Although Haubes were my priority and having no details, I was very grateful then. Bregards Marty

What a incredible knowledge and expertise this forum has(y)! Bought this cap in '80 as a Jäger Mütze. I only got the book one year later and was finally confused. But as the wellknown ratrace just started, the issue remained on hold and time would tell...:) @ Lars: thank you so much for the...

Original 'Reichskokarde' of the right helmet was missing and replaced by an ordinary rosette. At that time, a Jäger Shako was out of reach to me, but got the Jäger Mütze (as it was) by chance. Could someone complete the marking inside (1st J.Btn?) Thanks+bregards, Marty

I'm not into uniforms, so can someone inform me about those epaulettes, thank you.

Congratz ZEB, a real pleasure to see this unique collection. High quality pictures aswell(y).

Wow Glenn, thanks for your quick research, much appreciated! Just out of curiosity googled the RMK 1935, seems a very interesting and detailed item. Bregards Marty

That's a very neat Württemberg, Brusik1! Have the same but not so 'mint' as yours. Rgds Marty

Dear all, thank you all for your very kind reactions and likes, much appreciated(y) and feels Haube-Good! QT We also have members here who can provide information on the original owner. UQT *If it's doesn't take much effort for a colleague-member, I would really appreciate it+ thanks in...

Can't compete with the amazing and outstanding Baden-collections on this forum, but at least, feel very happy to have one Baden haube. See detail chope: a miniature plaque LGR109. Bregards, Marty

@ Sandmann: Thanks for reponse but no worries! @ Coert: Hey, thanks for yr efforts, meanwhile found an introduction (2019) on YouTube. Mainly French spoken(some English as well) with a small part refering to pickelhaubes or german gear in general. Bregards, Marty

Kind reminder to our European collectors/members. Is this 'Salon at Epernay' not known to any one? Many thanks+regards Marty

Hi Steve, a small world? Sure it is! More surprising is your link with Zeebrugge. I'm really anxious to know the story of yr captain grandfather and the Flanders Flotilla (if it's ok for you, by pm or e-mail,tx). The WW1 history of Zeebrugge/Brugge is well known to me and even until this day...

Thank you and correct Mark. And yes what if, it’s a very debatable item,…how it might been otherwise and this at both sides of the ocean. ------- Hi Steve, thank you for yr kind words. What a coincidence, was working at Zeebrugge as well, maritime & logistics all kinds. Felt very modest to...
