Wonderful find. I've seen the wartime shot, but not post war with the RK KvK ribbon. I wish we could get a clear close up shot of one of these in wear. Sepp, you're amazing finding all these photos. Outstanding as usual

Thanks for finding and posting Sepp, much appreciated !
Prost ! Steve.

Hi Steve, The Rk KvK w/swords I purchased in 1973 I was told by my friend (that I purchased it from) he would provide provenance for the cross. Sadly Rolf passed away leaving me to always wonder "WHO" it may have belonged to. It's a beauty marked 800 in the same location as war time crosses. Oh well.......Tom

I'm sorry to see this end my friend. The best of it's kind ANY WHERE !!! Thank You for this wonderful work Tom

Tom I was thinking the same thing reading Sepp's note in the RK thread in the Crosses section. I'm hoping that Sepp might just be able to make an exception with this thread as it's of enormous help to us and I'm not sure there's another like it on any of the other Major forums on the net.

Sepp, could it be possible to keep looking out for 57er shots for this thread in the midst of your collecting?

Hate to see this end

I just received an email from him.....this one will stop also. I hope Nigel can save this info. Tom
