No offence intended at all. It is most interesting for me to see these weapons in their earliest phase! ... and from plural regions. A few more pics on the subject from my book collection: "Erinnerung an Sarajevo " J. Studnicka & Co., First Edition. Unbound. N.d. (before 1918). Large oblong octavo (19 x 26 cm). Complete suite of 12 color plates of scenes and costumes. Original cloth portfolio. FYI: J. Studnicka & Co. in Sarajevo is already mentioned in 1898. And the portfolio can be dated before 1918 owing to the publisher's address affixed to the inside and on top of the front cover which reads "Buchhandlung J. Studnicka & Co. Sarajevo - Bosnien" -- no doubt this portfolio was intended for the tourist trade and provides a romantic view of this beautiful city . Remember "tourist trade" also in relation with the white horn bichaqs for officers of the Bosniaken Regiments after 1882... Enclosed 2 relevant pics with a detail pic of the weapons Last edited by gp; 31st May 2020 at 07:08 PM. |
