4-pieced, WWII- (ie. TR-) period ribbon-bar (ie. 'Feld- o. Bandspange') showing various WWII-period awards (amongst which a Czech 'Anschluss'-medal with attached detailed 'PB'-bar)

This is an attractive 4-pieced, WWII- (ie. Third Reich-) period ribbon-bar (ie. 'Feld- o. Bandspange') showing respectively the ribbons for a: 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse mit Schwertern' (or: War Merits' Cross second class with swords) having a golden-bronze toned 'Schwertern'-device attached, a: 'Winterschlacht im Osten 1941-42' (ie. 'Ost'- or Eastern-Front medal), a: 'WH (Heeres) Dienstauszeichnung für 4 Jahre Treue Dienste' (or: army-loyal-service medal for four years of loyal service) that comes with a detailed, silver-coloured eagle-device firmly attached and a: 'Medaille zur Erinnerung an den 1. Oktober 1938' (or: Czech 'Anschluss'-medal) that is having a detailed and somewhat larger-sized miniature 'Prager Burg-Spange' firmly- and period-attached as was awarded to all members of the armed forces that participated in the German occupation of Czechoslovakia that started on: '1. Oktober 1938', all four ribbons (and 'Auflagen') come in a wonderful- (and only moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. The ribbons are of the regular (ie. larger), ribbon-bar-size and measure approximately 2,5 cms. each (as is more often encountered). The 'Spange' comes in a very nice condition overall and is not 'backed' with a piece of wool but comes mounted onto a chrome-steel-based backing-plate (as more often). Of additional interest is, moreover, the fact that this ribbon-bar is confectioned in the so-called: 'Austrian manner'. This particular example was in my opinion only moderately worn ie. used: it does show some usage-marks and/or minimal aging ie. wear. Simply an attractive 'Feld- o. Bandspange' having an desirable combination: great to decorate almost any TR-period-tunic!
