Impressive photo of Franco-Prussian War Kameraden

[K Bandow]

This is a photo my dad has had for quite a long time. The first time I saw it, it was in the attic of my grandparents house, so I could not see much of it, but when I brought it down and looked at it under better light, I was very impressed! Now this is what I think of when I picture the Prussian Infantryman!
Enjoy,
Karl Bandow
If you want any close-ups, I will gladly do so!

Unit number?

Great photo! Too bad there isn't a clear view of the shoulderboards. That way we could identify the unit and where they were in the F-P war. But that doesn't detract from the photo. And those "needle-guns" are great!
