Title Assortment of officer cap cockades (11)
Nationality German
Period c 1914
Sold

These were worn on the peaked service caps of the WW1 era, on the central band with the national cockade above. The following states are represented: Baden x 3 (one Landwehr); Anhalt; Reuss x 2 (one Landwehr); Prussia; Bavaria; Brunswick (Landwehr); Oldenburg; Hanseatic Towns.

I normally price officer cap cockades at ?25 each, so here is a chance for someone to make a bulk purchase, especially as there are some rarities, eg Anhalt, Reuss, Oldenburg and Brunswick.

The condition is fairly good overall, with typical wear to the highlights of most examples.

Prov: from the J.R. Gaunt & Son Ltd. Pattern Book Archive, sold at auction by order of the National Army Museum, London.

I am just dropping your company a line to say thank you for the 2nd WW Iron Cross, that my brother has purchased off your site Thursday evening. We received it 1st class today and it is in excellent condition. Many thanks again.
