Hello All. I attended a military show and found this Tally cap from the Pre-Dreadnaught SMS Pommern, which I could not justify passing up for the price. This piece goes along well with my Tellermütze from the Yacht Hohenzollern. The headband is rather misshapen, as is most often the case with...

Hello All, I found this on eBay, and its in sorry shape, being a rather rare regiment, perhaps someone may be interested...

Hello All. I have this pair of Reichs Kokarden that I have had for 2 or 3 years, and I have no clue about the authenticity of them. Thanks in advance, Gentlemen. (And as usual, please pardon the Terrible Lighting)

Hello All. This is very off topic for this forum page, however, I am searching for someone who can tell me more about this cap I am interested in purchasing. I have tried on several other pages without any success to gain an educated opinion, so this is my last shot. It is being advertised as...

Hello all. I have a few more interesting photos from the web that I'd like to share. It is well known in history that Kaiser Wilhelm II had many uniforms, and he liked nothing more than to wear them. I have looked at many photos of Wilhelm, and still to me some of the most interesting are...

This photo is rather common, and many here have likely seen it, however I'd like to share it for anyone that hasn't. This is a photograph of Wilhelm II the Imperial German General Staff in or before 1912. However you will notice that none of the people here are actually in the photo, and this...

Hello All. I found this cap on eBay, I have zero intentions of buying it, and am just interested in how original it is. I'd like to know your thoughts. https://www.ebay.com/itm/266413535398 -Hayden

This is a Tellermütze from the Yacht S.M.Y./S.M.S. Hohenzollern, the Private Yacht of Kaiser Wilhelm II from 1893 to 1918. I purchased this piece at the beginning of May at a show near to me. I spotted it out from under several Kriegsmarine Caps. Naval items are very important to me personally...

I found this helmet for what seems to be a good price. I figured that someone here may be interested. https://www.therupturedduck.com/collections/other-headgear/products/m1897-prussian-grenadier-regiments-of-the-line-nco-pickelhaube

Aswell as collecting Headgear and what not, I too dabble in the world of Bayonets and Blades. This is my bayonet collection thus far. They are, from left to right, British P1876 Socket Bayonet. British/Canadian Number IV Mark II Spike Bayonet Effectively reliced US M1903 Bayonet Dated 1942...

Here is my new Prize piece, that I am lucky and blessed to have (as a beginner) Prussian Garde Pioneer, Silver Plated, with the Removable spike. Hope you all like it. 😁 This is officially the second Spiked Helmet in my collection, and I am extremely happy to have it.

Hello All. I was looking online, and I found an old auction listing from several years ago, this is the helmet that was on it. I have never seen anything like it. I have thought maybe its some sort of a fake or made from "non-pickelhaube" parts. The body is strange, it look like its got a...

Hello All. I have been doing some research on Militär Beamte Pickelhauben, and I understand that the Military Official Pickelhauben are kind of Oddballs in the world of collecting, But I also know that are folks who can tell what's what when it comes to them. On that topic, I have a question. I...

Hello All Once Again. I am hailing to you all as to your opinion in regards to the authenticity of this officers pickelhaube. Same story as my recent post. I simply would like to know if its good/original. Look forward to your opinions. Thank you once again.

Hello All! I am here to ask you folks' opinion on this Pioneer Officers Pickelhaube, in Regards to its Authenticity/Originality. I have found it for sale and these are the posted photos, so please bare with that. The price is decent and should it be good, this could be a big step in my young...

Today, January 18, is the day that Germany was unified in 1871, and the German Empire was proclaimed. So that's pretty cool.

Hello All, I Purchased this sword a couple of years ago at a show, and I cannot identify exactly what it is, I have found somewhat similar things, however nothing that I can pin as this, or this being a different model of. I believe it was probably made in the mid 19th century, maybe early 19th...

I have been active on this forum for about a week or just over. However it has been brought to my attention that I should introduce myself here. Hello all, I am Mr. Hayden Trumphour, and I am 15 years of age, from Ohio. Needless to say I am quite young. I am, how I might say, obsessed with...
