Complete award package set EK II 1914

[Green]

I am wondering, what is a complete award set for an EK II 1914? I have seen a lot of complete EK II 1939 sets, but never a 1914 complete set.
In the Book from Harald Geißler I found some pictures of such a set!
But is this the correct complete set.......?

nice set

nice set but the blue wax type packet does not belong in my opinion.

I believe it did belong to the set.

I like it, I have seen both light brown waxpaper and dark blue waxpapers to 1914 EK2's before.

Thank you for your opinions

Indeed, the book writes about and shows two differend packages, the blue wax one for protection against moisture and the paper one to hold and protect the ribbon and cross.
On the picture you can see the folded and loose end pieces, from the paper package for the cross and ribbon. So there is IMO a possibility they used an over sized package!

Nice looking set.

I've also got in my collection a blue paper packeted EK2 that came in a wax outer packet.

Can you show some pictures to compare?

Sorry, been away for a while. A quick pic before I forget. Funnily enough, the paper packet and cross are also marked "Z".
