1st Field Artillery Bridle Rosettes – DUIs. These are a scarce pair of horse bridle rosettes used by the 1st U. Field Artillery from 1923 into the 1930s (before mechanization). The distinctive insignia, designed to be worn on the uniform were used here on these brass rosettes. Scarlet is the color of the artillery branch, and the symbolism used here is the grape shot canister in center, for a remark attributed to General Zachary Taylor during the Mexican War, A little more grape, Captain Bragg. The tower on the top center represents the defense of Fort Sumter at the beginning of the Civil War, and a maple leaf commemorates the regiments engagements in Canada during the War of 1812. Overall the polished brass rosettes are 51mm diameter, and have heavy brass wires attached on the back for fastening to the leather bridle straps. There is some patina on both, and traces of brass cleaner residue in protected areas.
US Navy Airship Shenandoah ZR-1 Zeppelin Lambert Field 1923 Real Photo 7 READ. This is a real photo of US Navy Airship ZR-1 Shenandoah at Lambert Field (Missouri) 1923 that measures 7 1/4″ x 4 1/4″. The back has writing, One of the Navy’s Great Zeppelins… Believe this to be ZR-1 Shenandoah ZR-1 at Lambert Field 1923. 1925 due to structural failure while in line squalls in Caldwell, Ohio killing half the crew (14 men). It made first crossing of North America by airship. It’s length was 680 ft and height 93 feet 2. It was helium filled and when it crashed it broke in two. This is a RARE real photo of a Zeppelin that was only around a couple years. Look closely at building in background which help id Lambert Field and also see the tents out there. The quality of photo is great. I assume this was taken by Navy in plane and not a snapshot due to height and view…. And this was 1923! My photos are of the actual item you are getting.
