The cards I bought today

[AOK4]

Be ready for some interesting (that's my opinion) cards I bought today.

The first one shows a parade.

[AOK4]

München 1922

Hindenburg and Ludendorff visiting München on 21st August 1922.



Hindenburg:




Ludendorff:

[AOK4]

German soldier and his family




Did you notice his medals:

[AOK4]

Generalleutnant von Kosch

[AOK4]

Generalleutnant Fleck

[AOK4]

Kaiserin

I guess this is the Kaiserin and Prinzessin Cäcilie? Nice haircut, isn't it? It reminds me a bit of Dracula...

[AOK4]

Willie

And last but certainly not least: Kaiser Wilhelm II. Do you see what is so special at him?





I hope you enjoyed my post...

Very Nice

Dear Jan

I really like your postcards and photos, thanks for showing them. The last card is showing Kaiser wearing a Russian uniform with him not wearing the visor up right. A rare card I think, I haven't seen this card before.

Best regards

I love the original photos in postcard size.

What I want to know, looking at those Big Old Boys (pity the horses that bore THOSE guys! ) in the first photo, is why we Big Old Collectors never find THEIR uniforms, always the Tiny Teenagers sizes!!!???

Jan, any idea about the medal BEFORE his EKII?

[Mike Dunn]

Great stuff! Thanks for sharing them with us! Mike

Judging by the size, I'd guess a Friedrich-August medal.
Nice pic of Uhland and Jaegers at the review. Can you blow it up a litle to see the awards on their chests?
Nice PKs
Cheers,

I tend to agree with Jeff. The man is a Kraftfahrer and the card is not written, so that doesn't help. The cockade on both men's visor caps seems to be saxon...
I'll give it a try to get a blow up of the different officers at the parade and will post them here.

Jan, for a FA Medal the ribbon has not the right colors. I've checked this with a pic of a FA medal I have. I made it b-w and the complete ribbon looked grey.
