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.
