HIRIART Royal Bavarian 13th Francis Joseph I Infantry Regiment (1 Viewer)

[ucla1967]

This is a new set that I commissioned this year from Hiriart: 1033b ROYAL BAVARIAN FRANCIS JOSEPH I INFANTRY REGIMENT. I must admit that I didn't specifically request that particular regiment, but rather Bavarian Infantry in this specific uniform based on catalog set 1033 PREUSSEN INFANTERIE. The first three photos are of my set as I received it two days ago, the fourth is a stock photo.

Impressive . . .

Nice set! It would be cool to order it with the Bavarian Rautenfahne instead of the Imperial German Reichsbanner, too.

Prost!

Thanks Brad, but better yet with the regimental flag. I also wonder why Hiriart didn't refer to the regiment as "Franz Josef" rather than " Francis Joseph"? In any case, I have reordered this set with the proper flag for me on next year's order, since Bob W. talked me out of my set and plans to repaint the Imperial German flag. I found the attached color print in Bob's research material yesterday.
