| #1 Well the photo isn't of a British or French or Dutch-Belgium flag. The centric double eagle would be reflective of the Prussian-Russian-Austrian lot. The field of the flag is not standard Prussian for the period. However, between the first abdication of Napoleon and the 100 Days, a good number of ad hoc landwehr and freikorps German units were consolidated on enrolled into Prussian formations on paper but had yet to receive new uniforms and equipment. Possibly the source or maybe its someone's early 19th century concept of 'creative' attachment to one of their major events of the era, sorta like a 'magic hat'. |
