Aelgmule, how do you find all this?

the first is a death notice:
Joseph Koletzky, former (gewesener, not active at this time) gunmaker, aged 38 years, address im Lichtenthal No. 52, of hydrothorax
(whatever this was, tuberculosis, lung cancer?)

the other a note that Johann Koletzky and wife are staying at the Golden Star inn, but what city?

I don't recall who posted this, but I cannot find a serial number on this 1898 hammergun DR with similar screw on water-table with locks bearing Kalezky's name. It did experience reproof in the early 1970s.

Felix:

What say you on this double-headed Imperial Eagle, surmounted by a crown?

Raimey, I sent the link. What about the number on the buttplate, 2501..?

Many thanks there Gunwolf, as somehow I didn't save that image. So can it be stated that J. Kalezky's wares wear the serial number on the buttplate?

Only buttplate image I have for now. The custodian of the subject J. Kalezky DR is not able to meet w/ me till next weekend or so. Hopefully then we'll have additional data.

to Raimey:
Imperial eagle:
My DGJ articles (Court suppliers summer 2006, Springer summer 1997)
had images of imperial eagles ; first from a poster ex museum shop of the imperial mansion in Bad Ischl, the second from a box-cover ex
Springer. Both show a similar/equal central element like this one here.
Kalezky serial numbers should be found on the trigger tang where
one holds the stock.
Number 2051 could fit as I did guess for 1900.
(But have seen Kalezky pair and single without any serial nr. at all).

Lifted to show the Sankt Stephen's Crown on the right & the badge/shield betwixt the Crowns is the one of subject.


Double headed Imperial Eagle surmounted by a crown w/ badge/shield on its breastplate being the same as the crowned shield between the Austrian Crown on the left & Hungarian/Sankt Stephen's Crest on the right.

The reason Kalezky was present @ Bad Ischl must have either been the spa @ Bad Ischl or the potential clients who visited the spa @ Bad Ischl.

Raimey,

the crest in the middle of the eagle is the family crest of Habsburg-Lothringen and also the "small" crest of the Austrian Empire, see here:

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Habsburg-Lothringen


Dynastiewappen[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]
Das Hauswappen der Dynastie Habsburg-Lothringen ist zweimal gespalten; vorn auf goldenem Grund ein blaugekrönter, blaubewehrter und blaugezungter roter Löwe (das Stammwappen Habsburgs), mittig auf rotem Grund ein silberner Balken (= rot-weiß-rot, Österreich), hinten auf goldenem Grund ein roter Schrägbalken, der Richtung des Balkens nach belegt mit drei silbernen gestümmelten Adlern (das Stammwappen Lothringens). Das Wappen wurde auf kaiserlichem Doppeladler geführt und war in dieser Form neben seiner Funktion als Familienwappen seit 1804 auch das „kleine Wappen“ des Kaisertums Österreich.

Cheers,
Gunwolf
