Eaglr statue

[Mark Broughton]

Could I get your opinions on this statue as well as any info on what the engraving was for, "Zur Crinnaring an Uffz Korps 13./378". There are no maker marks on the base or the eagle that I can see. The engraved shield is loose fitting but the cap eagle has been glued on probably later. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks Mark

If I need to post this in a different area please let me know.
Could the inscription have anything to with the 13th Infantry Div , 13th Motorized Infantry Div. ,!3th Panzer Div. Or PanzerDiv. Feldherrahalle ? I don't think it would involve the 13th Luftwaffe field div. or the 13th Anti aircraft div.

"Zur Erinnerung an Uffz. Korps 13./378."

"As a memento of the NCO corps, 13./378."

Almost certainly 13./I.R. 378- 13. Kompanie, Infanterie-Regiment 378.

Thank you for that info Chris. Do you know if this is something that would have been done during the war or post war?

I believe that this is an original pre-war presentation item with a fine original dedication. I suspect, as you indicated you do, that the cap eagle was glued on after the war.

Hi Mark, Thanks for telling us the size of the eagle and its overall height - much appreciated. At 10 inches tall, it is quite a substantial piece. Best Regards, Michael
