By way of a slight digression; going from top left in your frame, could you please tell me who wore the City of London badges displayed in compartments #2 and #4, please? Last edited by Jelly Terror; 20-04-20 at 01:50 PM. |

Thanks, Mark;
These cases come with the divisions already in. I buy them from a company called just-in-case.biz, in Durham. I then cut mounting board into 52mmx56mm rectangles, nip the corners slightly, and mount the badges on the card. Generally pretty messy behind, but happy with how it displays. Thanks, JT; Those are the collar badges that go with the Cap badges immediately preceding them, so compartment 2 is the City of London Volunteer Regiment, and 4 is the City of London VR Corps of Citizens. All are better illustrated in my VTC Badges in K&K album, https://www.britishbadgeforum.com/fo...hp?albumid=523 if you'll excuse the plug! Best regards, Tim |

How do the collar badges to the CLNG, the Corps of Citizens and the CLVC compare size wise? Regards. |

Mounting Board
Hi, Mark;
It's just a standard Mount Board from Art Suppliers / Stationers. The most common is made by Daler Rowney, it comes in sheets up to A1 size, about 1.4mm thick, and in a wide range of colours. Best regards, Tim |

London Collars
JT,
All the pictures in the album are on roughly the same size background, so the relative sizes can be seen there. Happy to measure the collars, though: CLNG - 25mm W x 22mm H Corps of Citizens - 33mm x 30mm CLVC - 36mm x 30mm Best regards, Tim |

I've got a lot of my UK badges in plastic storage boxes I've bought at Bunnings (big Aussie hardware chain).
