Hi All -

I have the uniform in hand and took some detailed shots of the Spange. Opinions are very much appreciated.

Looks like a known original type. maker unknown at this time. The swaz looks a little high from this angle. Has it been replaced or is it a trick of the lighting?

Thanks, Don - The swaz is probably microns higher than the surrounding wreath - the patina and shadow make it seem to stand out higher than it really is.

Hi
looks like an original Ziemer&Sohne (a.k.a: 'big eye', all unmarked)
and I like the sewn on style, nice

Thanks, Jon -

The Spange is missing one prong, which I assume is why it is also sewn on.
