This impression is semi complete, but I've decided to replace the cuff title with a non BeVo one since they didn't tend to make Heer BeVo cuffs of this type.

The piping on the Elsenau shoulder boards are also far too bright to be PK (They look more like weathered Infantry ones in person) so I've ordered a new pair from LWY Werke.

Arriflex is the center piece of course, the battery box is there but not very visible, I had to have the box custom made (More pictures in comments maybe, depending on if I can find one that is).

After a few years of on and off searching, a couple months back I bought this early Decca Dulcephone off of a collector in belgium, from what I know they don't come to the public market often and he was also supposedly considering giving it to a WW1 museum like he had done with another period gramophone (American) before, I was lucky to get it when I did and I'm definitely not complaining, considering where it was found in south belgum where there was relatively heavy fighting earlier war (1914 or so..) it wouldn't be out of the question it had some involvement in the conflict.

I've played one of my period John McCormack records on this in the video (Where the River Shannon flows), John McCormack was one of the most popular and notable music artists of the period, his most notable being the original 1914-15(?) recording of "It's A Long way to Tipperary", I would've loved to play one of those but they're quite expensive on the market currently and when they're not I get screwed on shipping. Thank you!

Hi,

I just completed these regiental battalion flashes for my late WW1 1'st batt hampshire regiment impression, these are just some of the photos throughout the process. The shade feels a little bright to me but it is relatively close and by far the closest I could find, either way I don't know if I could find the motiviation to remake them...

Hope you like these, I'll do some more sewing tommorow where i'll replace my rank chevrons then also get these and my 4'th division insignia on as well. (If I don't decide to pick a better felt.)

Thanks.

I've been thinking over doing an ink stamping and De-farb service recently, mainly centered around WW1 British and German field equipment.

This was my test benchmark for a broader idea of ink stamping that has been in my head for a while now, lots more to come considering it worked out SO, WELL. Hope you enjoy this as much as I have stamping it at 1:40 AM as soon as the print was finished.

Got alot of stamps lined up for De-farbing SOF equipment, still trying to find a reliable method of removing the bad Kay Canvas stamps, Mills Equipment Co to name one, general stamps and equipment belt stamps.
