Unusual ribbons

[Robert Noss]

Thought this photo is quite interesting as this Oberfeldwebel is wearing miniature ribbons in his button-hole.



Maybe a kind of "personal note".

Kind regards

Interesting photo!

Robert, you ARE the !!!!

This was a very weird style in the FIRST World War... and yours is the FIRST time I have seen it worn like this in the SECOND!

This is, of course, typical woven in one piece common combination RIBBON BAR ribbon stock. We find pieces that were never used-- I've got some-- but this is the first time I have seen anybody back THEN wearing it this way. He would have had to buy that length special order.

I bet it got a few double-take looks from his comrades, because this is a really really unusual style of wear!

Great photo!

This is a first for me too, that is definitely a one in a million photo.

Thanks for Your comments, I already thought it is unique.

This time no fleamarket find but it came as a trade with another collector last monday.

Kind regards
