No - feel free to pass it along to them, Steve!

O K
Thanks I will
However , I am not sure that I would use the $ 50 credit
I don't know what I could buy at their prices ?
Thanks
Steve

Seems like Herr Rittmeister is also struggling with General „von Reiser“ (Hans von Beseler) and General „Michura“ (Georg Wichura) Not to mention General „von Kirbach“ (Kirchbach)

Not that I have spent much money at Der Rittmeister after all these years. I did reply with the correct answer as soon as I got that email. Not because of the $50 but because for some with particular areas pf interest, that is a very commonly seen portrait. Der Rittmeister, however, did not have the courtesy to reply. But as Steve said, what can you buy for $50 at that place anyway?

Well in Canada, they/he are known as "Der Ripoff Meister" for decades!
