Ortner, Dr. M. Christian, and Ludwigstorff, Dr. Georg: Austrian Orders and Decorations - Part III: The Non-State Decorations, Badges of Honour, Medals etc. up to 1918. Vienna 2021. In English language, size 29.5 × 26 cm, 608 pages in two volumes, with more than 1,200 colour and black-and-white photographs, cloth-bound hardcover with dust jacket, in card slipcase, weight 4 kg. With the double-volume Austrian Orders and Decorations, Part III The Non-Governmental Awards, Decorations, Medals etc. until 1918, the 3rd part of the comprehensive complete work of the imperial Austrian decorations is now available. While the 1st part dealt exclusively with the imperial orders and decorations, the 2nd part included the other wearable state decorations, and the concluding 3rd part deals with the non-governmental awards of Austria(-Hungary). Many of these decorations, such as those for services to the Red Cross or the Sovereign Order of Knights of Malta of the Grand Priory of Bohemia and Austria or the Teutonic Order with the Marian Cross, are still well known today. The same probably applies to the insignia of the Tyrolean nobility. On the other hand, the insignia and decorations of the Austrian ladies monasteries, the Ganerb and Imperial Knighthoods, the Order of St. Hubertus of the Counts of Sporck and the Salzburg Order of St. Ruperti are hardly known. In 30 chapters, including those on the Austrian Horse Breeding Medals, the decorations of the Hungarian National Fire Brigade Association, the Salvator and Manoeuvre Medals, both the latest research results and corresponding illustrations have been summarised. This double-volume deals with an extremely complex subject area, especially as a large number of decorations to be considered is not least due to the long period of time and different responsibilities. Likewise, the lack of uniform standards makes a structured research approach difficult. Nevertheless, it has been possible to process the most important awards historically and scientifically and also to present them in the form of real pieces. The 3rd part is also accompanied by a pictorial identification aid as a complete index of all orders and decorations (insignia) considered in this five-volume complete work, which also enables the non-specialist to easily identify real pieces and to read up in the respective chapters. |

Autengruber, Michael: Katalog zum Ordensteil der eLive Auction 66 am 25. und 26. Mai 2021 - Orden und Ehrenzeichen: Die Sammlung Internationales Rotes Kreuz Heinrich Baumann - Orden und Ehrenzeichen aus Deutschland und aus aller Welt. [Catalogue for the Medal Part of the eLive Auction 66 on May 25 and 26, 2021 - Orders of Chivalry and decorations: The Collection "International Red Cross" of Heinrich Baumann - Orders of Chivalry, Decorations and Medals from Germany and from all over the World.] Osnabruck 2021. In German language, size 29.5 x 21 cm, with 1,111 lots, 276 pages, illustrated throughout in colour, card cover. As a part of the 66th eLive auction, on May 25 and 26, 2021, starting at 5 p.m. CEST, Fritz Rudolf Künker GmbH & Co. KG in Osnabruck will also offer 1,111 lots with orders of chivalry, decorations and medals, badges, non-wearable medals as well as mounted groups from Germany, Europe and from all over the world. The auction catalogue can be viewed online at www.kuenker.de, from where the pdf catalogue of the entire auction can also be downloaded. The first part of the auction, which will be offered on May 25, is consisting of the International Red Cross collection from Heinrich Baumann (1930-2011), a passionate Red Cross man from Donaueschingen, who over many decades built up an extensive collection of numerous German and foreign orders of chivalry, Red Cross decorations and medals, badges, certificates and documents. It is probably one of the largest European private collections on this subject. Due to the systematic structure of the catalogue and its scientifically orientated elaboration, this first part can also serve as a special catalogue for international Red Cross awards. In the second part, orders of chivalry, decorations and medals from various consignors are offered, from the time of the German Empire, from Baden, Bavaria, Brunswick, Lippe (-Detmold), Schaumburg-Lippe, Oldenburg, Prussia (including a collection of Iron Cross), Saxony, Saxe-Weimar with numerous decorations, and from Wurttemberg and the German Empire, followed by awards of the Republic of Weimar, the soldiers' and veterans' clubs and associations, the German Reich from 1933 to 1945, the German Democratic Republic, as well as the Federal Republic of Germany and its federal states. Among the European countries, Austria, the Balkan states, France, Great Britain, and the Ottoman Empire are well represented, and among the overseas states, Japan and Vietnam. |

Autengruber, Michael: Katalog zur eLive Premium Auction 345 am 2.-4. Dezember 2020 - Orden und Ehrenzeichen: Die Sammlung Peter Groch Teil VI - Orden und Ehrenzeichen aus Deutschland und aus aller Welt. [Catalogue of the 345th eLive Premium Auction on December 2 to 4, 2020 - Orders of Chivalry, Decorations and Medals: The Collection Peter Groch Part 6 - Orders of Chivalry, Decorations and Medals from Germany and from all over the World.] Osnabrueck 2019. In German language, 29.5 y 21 cm, with 2,62 lots, illsutrated throughout in colour, card cover The first section of this part of the Groch collection contains the war awards of the Entente states or the allies of the First World War, which developed their own military activities. By far not all of them, who had declared war on the German Reich, Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria or the Ottoman Empire by July 1918, also became militarily active or donated awards in this context. The second section shows awards and badges from the time of the numerous armed conflicts (1917-1922) in the Eastern European states from the Baltic to the Black Sea, which were newly established after the collapse of the Russian Empire. The focus here is on Poland and the so-called White Armed Forces during the Russian Civil War. The third section presents the insignia of the German Freikorps, which had been created in the Baltic States after the collapse of the Russian Empire and the defeat of the German Empire in 1918, mainly in the voting areas in Silesia and East Prussia, but also in Bavaria. The badges of the Einwohnerwehren in the German Reich during the civil war-like battles against the Spartacists up to the Franco-Belgian occupation of the Ruhr from 1923 to 1925 can also be found here. The numerous badges, awards and pin badges of the soldiers, veterans and military associations and their confederations make up the fourth section, the last of the Groch collection in this auction. It is highly interesting from a scientific point of view because it shows the increasing influence of National Socialism after 30 January 1933, the day Adolf Hitler came to power. There is a great variety in the design of insignia and decorations, and the use of the swastika varies greatly. In some cases swastikas were applied more or less dominant quite early or the design of the pieces was completely changed in this sense. Others, however, have only very small - almost one is tempted to say ashamed, but still chumming up - swastikas. Still others removed monarchical symbols still existing, but without including any symbols of National Socialism. And still others simply changed nothing. The fifth section of the auction finally offers orders of chivalry, medals and decorations from some German states (including Bavaria, the two Mecklenburg Grand Duchies, Prussia and Saxony), the German Empire from 1871 to 1945, the Federal Republic of Germany and its federal states, individual European states (including France - especially First Empire, Restoration and Third Republic -, Greece, Great Britain, Holland and the Netherlands, Austria, the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union, Spain and Czechoslovakia), as well as some states from overseas (e.g. Japan). Noteworthy in this context are a whole series of raw gold medallions of awards from the Napoleonic period (French Empire, the Napoleonic kingdoms of Holland, Italy, Naples, Spain and Westphalia) and the Restoration, some of which contain the greatest rarities. |
