Here is your chance to pick up an incredible grouping to WW1 pilot Alfons Langer. His initials are engraved onto the reverse of two of his awards which makes it all that much more special! The Ehrenpokal (800 silver and hallmarked) includes the award document and all of his badges are with the original award documents as well. We have his three place medal bar and the award documents for the Iron Cross 2nd class and the Hindenburg cross award. To further enhance what all is here is his original flight book and military pass. The Prussian pilot’s badge is a lovely and modified C. E. Juncker piece produced in silver. The original reverse hardware was lost to time so the piece was modified to be worn on a chain and around the neck; perhaps given as a sweetheart momento. Alfons Langer’s initials are engraved into the reverse of this piece. Next we have his “WS” hallmarked Iron Cross 1st class which also has his initials engraved on the reverse. The commemorative pilot badge is a gorgeous Meybauer piece and the award document for this piece is 1920 dated and essentially states the Government is unable to finance his award due to the crushing defeat and terms laid out within the Versailles treaty and he is instructed to obtain one privately and at his own expense.
