I am new to Imperial collecting. I took this picture and would like your help on ID’ing it.

I believe, and I will be corrected if wrong, this is from Koenigin Elisabeth Garde-Grenadier Rgt. Nr. 3. They were garrisoned at Charlottenburg.

Correct. And a damn sexy board to boot!

The other one is: Kgl. Bayer. 2. Infanterie-Regiment Kronprinz. However the board looks to be Prussian? The Landesfarben are rather odd. I can see what could be Bavarian blue but also a lot of black stripes.

What are these?

Yet another set of epaulets....

I promise to buy the Kelso book!

Landwehr Inspektion Allenstein.

Thanks

Thank you Kaiser!

What was Landwehr Inspektion?

Both the active army and the Landwehr (reserves) had their own Inspektion which the task to make sure the units within their inspection area conformed to whatever it needed to conform to (readiness, training schedule, strength et cetera).
