*Any Canadian collectors ever heard of him.....

A rare badge, but it appears the heyday of CEF badges is waning. There has not been the spectacular bidding and prices realized seem to have declined over the last couple of years. A vendor can list for whatever price he/she wishes, but selling it is determined by the market. And, the market is much softer than two years ago.

Same badge as being discussed here: http://www.britishbadgeforum.com/for...ad.php?t=21642

I have no idea about the badge but he's talking total nonsense about the other Jewish units in WW1.

The spin on the Canadian unit is a bit fuzzy as well.

Do you mean this...

No - I was referring to the potted "history" of the British units. I wouldn't care to comment one way or another on the authenticity of any of the badges on offer - I haven't seen or handled enough confirmed genuine examples.
