This one flew in this week.
It's a M94 Busby from a Wachtmeister Husaren Regt. Nr 3 - 5 - 13 - 14... It was a private purchase and belonged to Einjährig Freiwilliger Thater 3. Eskadron...
The busby is covered with black-dyed seal fur... It's a soft-sided busby (like most officers busbies were made) and not a covered bamboo frame as we see in the issued Pelzmûtze...
This busby is a M94, used before 1897... In 1897 the Reichscokarde was added and in this case there is no sign of a Reichscokarde. The busby also has the paradeplume with hanging hairs that was used from 1843 until 1903...
The labels of the owner are in the carryingbox and its lid... Too bad he glued one of his labels over the makers label... The label in the busby has disappeared, but traves are slightly visible...
I think it would be interesting to know to which regiment mr. Thater belonged... Maybe some of you guys can look this up for me? Thank you very much in advance!
