dts, These beautifully handsewn "in memory of my service-time" momentos can make for an excellent complement to an imperial German naval collection. Some are quilted and embroidered with motifs of eagles, national and international flags, crowns, and other nautical themes. Many are also found resplendant with very good quality gold and silver-bullion work throughout the designs. If you find a real nice one in the $500-1K range I'd think that'd be fair - but remember, you'd be best off having it professionally framed/mounted so that's a bit extra, too. Best of luck! Bill
