I need some ribbons

[Eric Gaumann]

Hi all,
I need some help from you all. I'm looking for some ribbons for my ribbon-less medals. It's time for me to get my Imperial display up and running and I just can't bear to see loose medals floating around the case.
So I need some ribbons. Original or replacement are OK by me.
I'd *prefer* 30mm widths but it's not a priority. The ones I need are:
1) Koniggsratz medal ribbon
2) Hamburg Hansa cross ribbon
3) Wurttemberg Loyal Service IX year medal ribbon
4) German post-WW1 commemorative medal ribbon. Red, White & Black. This medal's sometimes called the Legion of Honour. An image (swiped from Detlev) is attached to make things easier.
5) Hessian Bravery Medal ribbon.

If anybody can help I'd be forever in their debt.
PM me, or gimme a shout at home: efgaumann@earthlink.net

Try Roy Wooley at World Medals . He's got a large selection of repro ribbons at good prices, and can probably find ones he doesn't have listed. I bought some from him a while back wit PayPal and had them in hand in less than a week. Almost as fast as Detlev

Thanks, Tom.
I sent Roy an email about 3 weeks ago and have not heard a peep from him since. I'd been assuming he was no longer in business. How long ago did you buy from him?

[Tom Y]

The last time I bought from him was about a month & a half ago, but 2 weeks ago I asked him about some ribbons he didn't have listed. He replied within 36 hrs. and this Tuesday he e-mailed me to tell me that he now had them. You must have got lost in the shuffle. Try again.

Thanks again, Tom
What's Roy's correct email? roy@worldmedals.co.uk?

Also!

Try asking Detlev, he has gobs of ribbons, not everything is listed on the website! Doesn't hurt to ask!

Try roywoolley@btconnect.com

Thanks, Rick.
I've got an email in to Detlev but it's been only a couple days so far so we'll just have to wait and see what he's got for me.

[Eric Gaumann]

Roy's just gotten back to me, and he has all of 'em!! All for only Eleven Quid. Which seems reasonable, I guess. I just have to find some quids and mail them to Roy
