This is an unusual cap tally for an enlisted Kaiserliche Marine sailor. The S.M.S. Schleswig-Holstein was a battleship that was launched in 1908. She was the last of the older-style battleship, made just before Germany started began building the “Big Gun” battleships. She was a part of the five-ship Deutschland Class. As an older ship she was not a part of the front-line battleship squadron. She was relegated to a lesser role instead, although she did serve in the Battle of Jutland (Skagerrakschlacht). She survived WW I and the scrapping of German ships in the 1920’s. She saw some service in WW II, then was finally scrapped in 1947.
The black silk cap tally measures 49″ in length. “Reserve S.M.S. Schleswig=Holstein” is embossed in silver on the tally’s front. The tally is in excellent condition. This is the first time that we have offered a Reservist’s cap tally.

This piece was acquired along with the document holder and photographs described below. The man’s name is Baumeister. He served with See Bataillon Nr III in China early in the 20th Century. The desk piece consists of a wooden plaque measuring 8 7/8″ x 9.” Affixed to the wooden plaque are several metal implements significant to a man serving in the See Bataillon. A crossed pair of oars lean up against a pike. Spread out in front of the oars are a number of tools (pick, shovel, etc.). In the middle of the tools is a fouled anchor. Directly above the anchor and below the oars is an officer’s cap kokarde. This is a touching display to the man’s service. While offered separately.

Very high-quality miniature commemorative navy airship badge mounted onto a pin. The stickpin is silver-toned and very well made for such a small item. As is correct for a full-sized Commemorative Navy Airship Badge, it sports a Hohenzollern Crown. While all other naval flight badges were gilt-toned, the Navy Commemorative Airship Badge was silver, like its Army counterpart. It is a lovely miniature.
