Oberst Karl Koppenwallner

Hi guys,

Does anybody have the uniform of Karl Koppenwallner? If so, would you please PM me? I am looking for a uniform of his.

Just so any current uniform owner knows why I'm asking and would like to connect, I have a superior quality (and mint) pair of breeches named to him.

Thanks,

Jason, to find exactly his uniform is more than impossible.

A piped uniform and named from a DKiG and KC holder with a such high rank as Oberst will be very expensive and for shure a absolut Highlight piece in a collection.

Good luck,

I seem to remember that somebody had a line on some of his pieces at some point. Might have been documents though.

notice the very pointed upper pocket flaps on his tunic.

Hi Steiner,

I might have a bit more optimism than you.



Stranger things have happened. For example, I've found three separate items to an Oberst/Generalmajor from three unique sellers over a three year period. I'm sure certain others have experienced even greater good fortune than I.

That said, I am looking to link up with others who have any Koppenwallner items. I didn't mean to imply I was looking for this specific tunic in the photos - they were just for a visual reference. I think it's important for various collectors with the same named items to connect. This way when one decides to sell, the grouping has a chance to reunite.

I had hoped that at least another here would own a Koppenwallner piece or at least know someone who does. Too bad though that nobody does (or feels comfortable raising their hand).

Best regards,

Jason
