Mit Binden und Bandagen
German students posing in full battlegear…
I vaguely remember that Clausthal is supposed to be the backdrop of this photograph. It shows members of an unidentified fraternity posed around a fencer and second ready for a Mensur with Korbsäbel, the heavy basket-hilt saber used by German students to settle matters of honor.
Looks like the ‘Altenauer Strasse’ in Clausthal. Maybe its in front of the VDSt-Haus?

It doesnt look like the VDSt house.The hats worn in the picture look white.Corps Montania has white hats.So I’m guessing it’s them.
