M89/97 Tschapka Ulanen-Regt. 15

Ok, I'm just a little bit proud to present this complete set... I had to sell a few of my ribs to buy this one, but I think it's a great addition...
It's a Private purchase M89/97 Tschapka for the Schleswig-Holsteinisches Ulanen-Regt. 15 (Saarburg) XXI Armee Korps, with the yellow Rabatte, Fangschnur, paradeplume and the 3 separate storage boxes... The Tschapka is named G. Zumstein inside the flat top... The Fangschnur, the parade plume and Cokarde are the models for Unteroffizieren...

brilliant ... always my favorite piece of headgear since seeing Errol Flynn in the Charge of the Light Brigade as a kid.

Nearly decade ago at an estate auction I bought a 20th Ulan NCO veteran's complete uniform. I really just wanted the Tschapka - which is a beauty. The auction broke up the ensemble starting with a huge pastel portrait of the man on a horse. Then came the Tschapka with plume and Rabatte, the sword and the uniform with boots, belts and socks. I did not get the portrait, went overboard on the Tschapka, got the unit marked sword reasonably and the uniform cheap. It all balanced out at the time and now I'm quite happy I was resolute in bidding for the Tschapka for that undid the competition

Adler,
Absolutely magnificant Tschapka. I can understand why you would be proud of it. It is such a pleasure to see quality such as this. Thank you for taking the time to post this wonderful piece of Imperial history.
