This is a marvelous Vivat Ribbon that commemorates the Central Powers members in 1915. Vivat Ribbons were produced primarily during WW I’s early years to help boost patriotic support and support for the German Red Cross. The handsome gray ribbon is made of silk and measures 2 ½” x 16.” Embossed on the ribbon in black are the members of the Central Alliance: Germany, Austria, Hungary, and Turkey. Above the members’ names we see three swords tied together that commemorate the members (Austria and Hungary share one sword, being a single Empire). The Vivat is in very fine condition. [PLEASE NOTE: we have a very special period collector’s album that was designed specifically to house Vivat Ribbons].

This is a very early Vivat Ribbon that commemorates a century of Hohenzollern rule in Germany. The mustard-yellow Vivat measures 2 ¼” x 12.” At its top we see the dates 1813-1913. Below Kaiser Wilhelm II appears in his Garde du Corps uniform and helmet. His great-grandfather König Friedrich Wilhelm III (1770-1840), who was Prussia’s König during all of the Napoleonic Wars’ phases, appears below him. Appearing below König Friedrich Wilhelm III are three other important Germans from his time period, including Generalfeldmarschall von Blücher, commander of all Prussian forces during the Napoleonic campaigns (including the Battle of Waterloo), and the latter’s Chief-of-Staff, General Gerhard von Scharnhorst.
