    On the above--the scan is upside down for the most part but--ill try explaining soem of these bars. I will have an updated and complete showing of the collection sometime soon.

    The top 8 place bar--is a repo bar that used real devices-but I no longer have as I gave it away years ago. I bought it because it went perfectly along with my Artillery Majors tunic:

    The 2nd bar--6 place bar--is an all WWII Luftwaffe Officers bar.

    Bar Nr 3--the 7-place bar (with provenance) is a 7 place Imperial ribbon bar that was highly researched about 12 or more years ago) and in which was a bar that was once owned by: the: Grand Duke of Mecklinburg/Schwerin: Friedrich Franz von Grossherzog IVth. Not sure if my memory serves me well today but--I MIGHT have left out or misplaced part of his name.

    Bar 4--3-place Imperial and WWII bar. Nothing special and had belonged to a lower-ranking NCO.

    Bar 5--the 4-place-belonged to a person who was in the Police in WWII.
