Colours and standards of Hesse-Kassel regiments are covered in Robert Hall's book on Hesse-Kassel and the Upper Rhine Circle. The book is available from the Pike and Shot Society or Caliver. A CD of the book is available from Baccus 6mm.

Colours of the Swabian Circle regiments are available in August Kühn's book that has been translated and published by Pat Condray, "The Armies of the Imperial Circles of Swabia, Franconia...". It is also available from Caliver.

Hope this helps.

Hi, Thanks for the answer. I think at almost £90 I will pass up Robert Halls Book, but I am off to Colours at Newbury this weekend so will do some hunting there as I know that Caliver and Baccus will be there.

Thanks again.

Buy the CD's, they are cheap.

Well spent my money on the Hessen Kassel CD but due the amount of metal I bought have not had time to look at it yet.

As I only need two Swabian Cavalry standards for cuirassier? squadrons buying the CD was a very expensive way of doing it. Would it be possible for someone to give me an idea of the colours?

Thanks
