Hi Jim
My main interest is in the Great War mainly the 25th Battalion which is somewhat extensive I have lesser collections of 85th Battalion and RCR which were the three fighting battalions as well as the other troops headquartered in Nova Scotia during WW1. I mainly collect medals and use badges to add color to displays I have about 10 groups to the R.C.R. and half of these are officers which was why I was happy to land this lot. I also have a divisional patched officers tunic also WW1 period as well as a badged and painted divisional patched helmet to the regiment. I am looking for any great war examples of insignia I do not have.
I consider Mike's RCR collection extensive one hard to surpass As for my recently bought pieces being advanced I really got lucky on the weekend I rarely ever see this stuff myself other then in other collections.
Thanks for your comments
Stephen
