Bavarian Generals tunic

[k bandow]

I could be wrong, but I think von Godin is in this period photo I own. Regardless, there are two nice examples of Bavarian General uniforms shown.

One posted years back by 03fahnen elsewhere when we were discussing imperial collar tabs.

King of Bulgaria in Bavarian GFM M16 bluse. His actual blue was offered for sale and I have no idea who ended up with it in their collection. Loops galore for badges.
These are the only photos of it.

Hello Charles,

I spoke with my friend and he made an exception and allowed me to photograph the uniform and show it.
As you can see they removed the patch with the cross of St. John, before it arrived in Spain and sold it separately.
Luckily I saw it on the internet and was able to download a copy. I also show it here.
The shoulder pads I think they are not his.
I hope you like it.
Best regards, Antonio

Antonio ;
What do you think about the shoulder straps on this tunic?
To me , they look too "new "
also a bit long for that tunic
That is just my thinking , what about you ?
Thanks

Photo from a post on this site .It shows the length of the
shoulder strap ends just before the shoulder seam on the tunic.
A proper fit , especially for a tailored uniform of a General.

The tunic would be great if original shoulder boards added and the St John restored to its proper place.

Here we can see some pictures of Ferdinad wearing this tunic.

In the Ferdinand pics, left hand side behind the Tsar was Ewald v Massow, FlüAdj to Kaiser Wilhelm II. Later SS GRuF. But at least now you have a decent alternative to reference other that that one SS pic languishing on the internet
