Here's a recent acquisition:
Hessian 25th FAR Reg't One Year Volunteer, dated 1913.
I believe the OYV Shoulder Strap shows the cypher for the 25th FAR Reg't, and not the numbered 61st FAR Reg't.
Image size is 10.5 x 15 cm, with the cardboard mat being 17.5 x 23 cm.

The helmet pictured looks exactly like the one that I have. I need to try and track down a FAR 25 strap to compliment the helmet. Great photo!
