I just got this nice looking Hunting Show Document , dated 4th June 1914 . from the town of Minden in Westphalia , 84,000 now .The Document is very large 14-3/4 by 19-inches , the framed bordered area is 11-1/2 by 15 -inches , and is printed on heavy stock paper .

Upper area shows this nice drawing of a hunting dog .

The middle section gives the name as W.Ewers, dipl.agr., from Hannover , and the Bronze Medallion being given for an huge deerantler stag.

The lower section has signatures of the judges , most interesting the one by Duke Fink von Finkenstein.

..and a close-up of the Duke's signature .

I should have written " Finck von Finckenstein ". Here the dog on the right side.

..and one more close-up of the nice hunting dog drawing that also shows the artist's name as H. Sperlin or Sperling.

..and a shot of the interesting border frame .

Bernd,

A beautiful document to be sure, sehr schön!
To me, a superior little piece of artwork, too.
The old German printing and graphic work is something to be admired.

Many thanks!

Bernd,

Excellent... A ,seldom seen, piece of art and history rolled into one.....Thanks for the pix...

Regards,

This is a very nice document first I have seen of this hunting exhibition, I like to collect medals awarded in these hunting exhibitions especially from the late Weimar and 3rd Reich. These documents make great wall displays,I'm sure it will look good on your wall.
Here's a nice diploma awarded by the ADJV in Hamburg.

Many Thanks for showing it.
