1.Imperial
German Navy (Kaiserlichmarine) officer's visor cap.
Beautiful example of this extremely rare cap, in outstanding
condition. This is only the second real, untouched example I
have ever seen. Top is navy blue, band is black velvet.
Bullion wreath with national cockade and crown are
breathtaking and has never been off the cap. Buttons have
the Imperial German crown over the anchor. Original
chinstrap is in good condition. Imterior is lined in dark
blue silk. The officer's name is embroidered in the top of
the lining and reads "Lienau". There is one very small
pinhead size moth nip on the top, otherwise no real damage.
If you ever wanted one, this is your chance, as they turn up
maybe once a decade, especially in this condition. Choice!
SOLD

2.WWI Austrian/German
jäger mountain soldier bronze statue. Very nice
example, mounted on rock, like he's climbing the mountain!
Detail is very nice, showing many of the familiar gear used
by these soldiers. Has the mountain cap with an oakleaf
sprig in it. Has the jaeger balls on his front pocket.
Condition is excellent. Not sure if the gun was longer, but
seems a little short, hard to tell, as it doesn't look
broken. Over 6 1/2" tall or 17cm. Superb piece for your
office or collection. $550
SALE!

3.Imperial German Hussar mounted portrait rendered in watercolor (I think). Mounted officer in a light blue attila, possibley a member of the Huraren Regt. Kaiser Franz Josef, Nr. 16 (Schleswig) and wearing visor cap. This is a pre WW1 piece. Superb lifelike artistic quality. He is right outside the stable, which can be seen behind him. Mounted on the original cardboard matt, but this could be easily replaced. Measures 21" wide x 17" tall. Very scarce Husar artwork, dating from the turn of the century or earlier. Would look great with an Imperial or pickelhaube collection as a display. $325 SALE! $205 |

7.German
WW1 Imperial era Reichsbahn visor cap with the original
storage box. One of the best condition Imperial visor caps
I've ever seen. There are about 2 small moth tracks,
otherwise, it is perfect. Prussian blue top with red piping
and black velvet band. Prussian cockade on band and Imperial
winged wheel to top. Interior is manufacturer marked and
also is denoted as "manufacturer to the King". The size of
the cap is approx. a 57. The bottom of the visor has some
paper stuck to it that was in the box all these years. The
paper is from a a church service in Berlin, in 1914. The box
is cardboard and has some tape repairs, but is still intact.
Overall gorgeous example. Choice! SOLD
