| Prussian Cuirassier Regiment No. 2 "Prinz von Preussen" uniform from the book"Uniformen der Preussischen Armee 1758" |
I was surfing the net today looking for an on-line version of the Bautzen Manuscript of the Austrian SYW army. I did not find a copy, but I did find this very interesting manuscript depicting all of the Prussian infantry and cavalry regiment uniforms circa 1758.

The book is from the collection of the Sachsische Landesbibliothek-Staats-und Universitatsbibliothek Dresden. It indicates that the author was Cerino Badone, but I can not verify the author. Does anyone know any more information about this uniform manuscript?
Cerino Badone is a PhD in military history at the "Università degli Studi del Piemonte Orientale" in Italy. He put the manuscript on-line. You can find it and download more easily than on Scribd at Kronoskaf, in the page of reference for the Prussian Army.
ReplyDeleteI think you'll not find easily the Bautzen manuscript to download. The Thummler book is still in copyright.
