Thanks Brian ;
All the new straps are from the former Zentner collection .
In most cases I was lucky that the straps retained the
I D tags placed on the back of the straps by the collector .
The first photo is of
Grenadier Regt. zu Pferde Nr. 3 ( Dragoon Regt. 3 )
pre war strap with the beautiful rose red underlay
Cypher of King Gustav V of Sweden
Cypher awarded Aug 29 , 1911
The Dragoon Regt. 25 strap is my favorite pattern.
The wider strap with 2 rows of piping .
The original white underlay over the blue that the
dragoons added later.
This wider strap is for the future peace time
Friedensrock
The Jager zu Pferde straps are
regiments 3 and 10 which both take the yellow piping
and regiment 4 with the light blue piping .
All 3 have the wide welt piping
J z P R 4 was the last strap of the J z P R that I needed
to complete that part of the cavalry officers straps
