British Army Proficiency Badges, 1st ed v's 2nd ed
I wondered what are the differences between the 2 editions as I would like to add one to my library at some stage?
Thanks for any insights |
2nd has updates, dealing with badges in use after the date of publication of the 1st but the images are of poor quality.
The 1st is a much better quality product, the images are far better than in the 2nd. Ask grumpy what he thinks about 1st v 2nd (light blue touchpaper and retire.......) |

The 2nd edition was basically a scan of the 1st, the quality suffering as a result.
|
looking for a 1st edition then....

Unless you want the additional information which includes badges introduced from the early 1980's - 2005.

I find it convenient to file my badges as per the book - a scan or photocopy of the relevant page with the actual items I have, filed in the order they're shown in the book, index pages etc copied and with the badges.

Leigh is totally correct.
Having given up badge collecting some time ago, I collect better images of the badges IN WEAR, and, guess what, file them as per the original book. I ripped a second edition up and use its pages as page One of each badge section [ photocopy of the reverse needed of course]. |
