Nice helmet but I always thought that a red plume indicated a musician…if so this would belong to a musicmeister.

I think in Bavarian service the red plume indicated artillery. Very nice helmet.

Bavarian Red Plume is Artillery Brian!

Do you have a straight on picture that clearly shows the back bottom left portion of the Hinterschirm ? There looks to be a bit of damage but its hard to see in the pictures provided.

I like it

 

[wayne8661]

I will send one later. It is not damaged. Maybe a little out of shape but definitely no damage.

Best regards
John

Oui, les Bavarois avaient des règles particulières pour le Haarbusch :
Pas de Busch pour l'infanterie, et de Haarbusch rouge pour l'artillerie.

Le reste de l'armée allemande (et prussienne) :
---Certains régiments : pas de Busch.
---Régiments sélectionnés : Black Haarbusch.
---Quelques rares régiments prestigieux comme le "Leib" : Haarbusch blanc.
---Les musiciens : Red Haarbusch.

Cela n'intéresse pas le Federbusch des généraux.

Another peculiarity of Bavarian officers is that the "officer's" Landkokarde features a simple blue ring.

True for Prussia. and many other states but Bayern had many regiments ( Cav .& .Inf ) decked out in red horse hair headress

Just for members information, after an Imperial decree dated the 5 of September 1886 all Bavarian Artillery regiments were permitted to screw a red hair plume onto the Helmet for parade duty.
