Discovered König Pilsner while in Potsdam earlier this year. Radelberger is one of my favorites when in the east. Just came back from 10 days in the Mosel River region where Bitburger is my favorite. 🍻
There is a new show in Germany being organized for the last weekend in March 2024. It's a collaborative effort between Helmut Weitze and Krey (who used to run the Waffenbörse Kassel shows).
Picked up another Kaiserliche Marine uniform with a KM pattern artillery Kaiserabzeichen. This one also has the larger wool oval found on the KM variant. Nice "C.E.Juncker" marked piece.
Nice set! Congrats! I think M79s and their holsters are indeed fascinating because of the story they can tell.
The "EWB" marked ones are very tough to find, and I passed (though I regret it now) on the one example I came across.
I saw this M1860 before, I think on a FB group. Great Pickelhaube!! Like I have told you on WAF, you have great items!
I have a 1868-dated Dragoner cartridge pouch and bandolier also marked to the 11th Dragoner Regiment.
A friend of mine was present, and he pays very well for TR items. He told me he was "blown out of the water" on everything!!!
I tend not to look at auctions. I much prefer networking and shows...
Abe Books is the best place to search when they are available. Will not be cheap however. Even Steve's book is crazy expensive, but I would save that $$ for Dr. Wernitz's books.
