Bavarian Telegraph Shako

[J.LeBrasseur]

Been looking for a nice Bavarian Shako for awhile, and just got this one. A very nice marked shako to a telegrpah unit. The condition is excellant.

Markings read TELEGR. BAT. B.A.I. 1912 Also, has a number 2 embossed to the inside top.

Not sure if it was ever used, as original drawstring is still tied up as new.

Enjoy

Okay my mad Hatter friend–I need the markings. Especially the one from the BA. This is clearly documented to the first Bavarian Army corps and it has always been difficult to find so please please please send me a 300 dpi scan please please please.
