  1. Hi Ralph
    I was reading the same article by Louis Delpérier yesterday where you took the article from and I wondered where to find the "cordon tricolore" to decorate the clairon; google gave me the answer:
    there it is,under "accessoires divers" - http://www.pgm-couesnon.com/catalogueproduits3.html
    With my friend Jan's instrument, there you have a period perfect clairon !
    And for the braid to decorate the uniform, ebay:
