This is an attractive - and actually in combination not that often seen! - WWI- (ie. Third Reich-) related, eight-pieced medal-bar (ie. 'Ordenspange') being of the 'non-detachable'-pattern respectively depicting a WWI-period: 'Eisernes Kreuz II. Klasse' (or: iron cross second class), a: 'Frontkämpferkreuz 1914-18' (ie.: 'Kriegsteilnehmerkreuz mit Schwertern'), a neatly enamelled: 'Ehrenzeichen für Deutsche Volkspflege 3. Stufe' (being an early-period example without swastika), a Third Reich-period- and neatly bright-silver-toned: 'Treuedienst Ehrenzeichen 2. Klasse' (or: silver-class, loyal-service-medal for 25 yrs. of loyal civil-service), a: 'Deutsche Olympia-Erinnerungsmedaille 1936' (or: Berlin Olympic Games 1936 commemorative-medal) and three Austrian WWI-period commemorative-medals (of which the last one bears an additionally added small-sized 'Edelweiss-Auflage') all eight pieces coming in an overall very nice- (albeit just moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. All eight awards are truly neatly silver- (ie. bronze- or golden- ie. silver) coloured and are 'fairly frosted' examples that are all eight just minimally tarnished by age and/or moderate usage and wear: they are all totally void of any damage or alike and the enamelled surfaces of the VP-medal and TD-EZ are fully preserved without showing any damage (as can be seen on the pictures). All eight pieces come naturally mounted onto their period ribbons and have a nicely preserved age-patina and are just a tiny bit dirty: they were never cleaned nor polished (as can be seen on the pictures). The entire 'Spange' - which measures in total: 16,5 cms. - is of the 'non-detachable'-pattern and is nicely 'backed' with a piece of bright-red-coloured wool and shows a (regular-type- and of course functional) pin- ie. catch-set-up: moreover, does it show an interesting, linnen-based tailor-etiket that reads: 'Ordendekorationen Bruno Görlich - Berlin NW - Rathenowerstr. 8' (as can be seen on the pictures). The 'Frontkämpferkreuz 1914-18' is a maker-marked example that shows the makers'-designation: 'P&C-L.' (as can be noticed on the pictures). Simply a very attractive example of a larger-sized, ie. eight-pieced(!), WWI- (ie. Third Reich- and/or: 'Austrian'-) related 'Ordenspange' that comes in an uncommonly found combination and that will be very hard to be upgraded!
