    And that, Boys & Girls....

    ... is the truth in a nutshell.. Impossible combination. We have a bar that shows pre-1935 mounting order of a Prussian... with 2 House Orders that could only be awarded to a native son of Bavaria and Saxony.... Were there exceptions on the Saxon RK of the Military Order of Saint Henry? Yes, but they are extremely rare (the most famous being v. Richtoffen)... Couple this with the bizarre combination of both enlisted and officer from two kingdoms (Saxony & Württemburg) and we have an extremely naughty bar.... that Heiko Grusdat in Germany just paid a whopping 186- Euro for.....
    Now, even as a parts piece, to use the parts to fix something else?? Extremely expensive IMO.

    The moral of the story.... if it looks too good, too odd, too whatever.... listen to that little voice that's whispering in your ear. Always ask yourself, is this truly possible?

    David, the second bar he had listed is also improbable. 5 different states with enlisted awards??? I don't think so!
