Smile Buying badges!

We went to Malta some twenty five years ago and in a conversation with Hugh King he told me that there were three large collections of badges on the Island and he had bought two of them.

We went into a bar/restaurant in Valletta and the walls were covered in frames of badges, after looking at them for some time I spoke to the owner who said it was a small part of his collection, I think this must have been the one that got away . . !

He certainly must have cut a lot of hair to get his collection, but he was in the right place at the right time.
