Awesome ribbon bar collection you have going there, Chris. I really enjoy mine too.

I am waiting for the day when someone is able to match up a significant medal bar to another members ribbon bar. It is bound to happen..

...or even better, someone notices a medal bar from their collection in a photograph. How cool would that be?

"Hey! That guy is wearing my medal bar!"

Awesome!

Hi Chris, awesome collection! Many look very familiar!
The one I like the best is second down from the upper left corner. The combination with the Schwarzburg House Order (with swords) and the Saxon Weimar White Falcon (with swords) is probably the rarest thing I could spot in there. A very nice collection and I like the display as well!

Great collection, Chris. My favourite is the first one on the left with the "Vor dem Feinde"-bar.
Thanks for sharing.
Best regards,
Gerd

Thanks for the compliments guys.
More and more I find this becoming my favorite part of the collection.
And I think displaying with this red velvet background really makes these bars pop!

Thanks Rick (yeah, you do recognize a few familiar faces don't you ). The Schwarzburg House Order (with swords) and the Saxon Weimar White Falcon (with swords) bar is probably my favorite...
Well, that & the 9 place bar above it with the "Vor dem Feinde" on it....
Well those & the 9 place with 25 year Polizei Long Service......
Oh yeah & the 7 & 9 place bars to the same Saxon soldier........

Hell, I guess I can't pick out a favorite. I love them all, down to the goofy looking homemade Lifesaving/Kyffhäuser- Kriegsdenkmünze one at the bottom.

Some one help me!! I think I've got the fever!!!

Mark, it's not the exact same bar, but it's pretty damn close!

A very nice mixture of different ribbon bars from different periods, especally like the '57 bars.

You know I really should start collecting these.
