Feeling beter now , thanks!!
TRULY AMAZING!!!
It is always great to know who it belonged to, but this provenance is one of the greatest a collector can hope for!
On the other hand with such a provenance chances that everything has been kept is greater than of a ordinary guy!
....
No I am kidding, just jealous (in a positive way!!) .
I always was intrested in nobility history and items, owning a military item with such a pedigree of anyone (German,Belgian ,English or French) is there fore high on my wanted list.
So you will understand my feeling now!
The pistol of Von Rundstedt, the marshal baton of Ney and the sword of the general baron van der Linden d'Hooghvorst .
Are the other items that made a similar impression to me in my life.
Cheers
