Imperial Shoulderboards.
OK, so the first one is simple - looks like infantry podporuchik.
Single piece, size 7,5x17cm. What would be it's value? |

another...
This pair is somewhat more troublesome.
It seems to be an unissued pair (but ruined by time and moths), but not for a military officer. The lace on the frontside looks like generals' and seems to have been of greenish-silver colour, piping and stripes - of dark green colour (faded on one board) and the back - of red colour, but it has been almost compleately eaten by moths. Surprisingly, the buttons are blank and have no stamps. From the remains of paper labels on the back I can read: 1."...ASSEL'." and below"...roe serebro..." 2."...ovich". Who would have worn them and what would be their value? |

Imperial shoulder board
I was wondering if anybody could tell me what the insignia on this man's shoulder boards mean? Maybe rank and unit? I don't know a thing about Imperial stuff.

Re: Imperial russian shoulderboards.
Auke,
The basic system is fairly much the same as the Soviet one. In this case, one stripe (junior officer level) and 4 stars: Lieutenant-Captain. The big "insignia" at the edge of the board is the current Tsar's cypher, in this case, "Н" and "II" for Nicholas the 2nd. Marc |
