Default A Growing Problem

Hello Luke,
Could not agree with you more. If I may let me add fuel to the fire with a WWII Canadian Parachute Corps O.R. badge acquired in 2009. In all fairness the gentleman (George Peterson) producing these at the time very clearly stated that they were a reproduction. The brass is heavy gauge, so the correct heft/weight is there too. One thing I'm not certain of was how rigorous the placement of the lugs was, i.e. quality control. At the time I recall warning people that with the passage of time this badge could become very troublesome. Like you I would entertain comments from forum experts.
