I totally agree with ww1czechlegion.

Still on the subject of artillery, here is a FAR 10 (1.Hannoversches Feldartillerie Regiment) field jacket.

In these pictures with an artillery pickelhaube for display purpose only.

I would like to start this new thread that will introduce us to the fascinating world of Imperial German uniforms. The first step in our training is this uniform, which I consider appropriate for the occasion. Lehr-Regiment der Feldartillerie Schießschule - 5.Batterie

Well done, Coert

The sad news has devastated my soul. It's an irreparable loss, especially for his family, but also for the friends on the forum who, like me, shared his passions. I can say that Steve was a true gentleman, a kind-hearted person, with a keen intelligence and interest in history and the German...

IMHO original, how much do you ask? I'm interested.

Really a great a excellent helmet. Congrats. Zeb

Wow what a platoon! The Odenburg army invaded us.

Of course, an ersatz helm could not be missing.

Wow! Never seen another like this one. Thank you for sharing. Zeb.

Dear Bruno, I really don't know if it was intuition. I think it was luck that allowed me to buy beautiful objects in good condition. After all, since I was young, I've always cultivated a passion for beauty and quality in things in general. If something doesn't meet my minimum standards of...

Unfortunately this is another "bogus".

Now completely addicted to my new passion, with the only help of 2th volume by Jean Larcade's book Casque a Pointe (a friend had made me black-and-white photocopies of his), I managed to purchase my first officer's helmet: an artillery officer's helmet from the reserve of the Kingdom of...

After my first purchase, driven by a strange and uncontrollable feeling, it didn't take long to purchase my second pickelhaube. I hadn't yet realized I had contracted the incurable disease called "haubevirus" by specialists. And this was my second purchase. A late-model non-commissioned officer...

Just like in the Disney saga, Scrooge McDuck keeps his first penny as a lucky charm, I too continue to keep the pickelhaubes in my collection that I purchased in the early 1980s. And you, my friends, have you kept your first treasures? My first pickelhaube was this Prussian M95 marked I.R.74 -...

Frank, we all are waiting for your next exhibition.

I couldn't resist buying this Mod. 1867 visor cap from the Oldenburg 91th infantery rgt. I find it so fascinating. And what condition it still is after more than 150 years.

How is the eagle attached to the helmet body? Are there double holes? As it appears, it's too low compared to the helmet, and the ghost of its wings can be seen far above. The brass eagle doesn't match the silver wappen. I have serious doubts that it's original on this helmet. Zeb.
