Default Interesting WW1 Artillery Badge Checklist

I found this collectors checklist while searching through a box of documents here in the office.

I'd like opinions if it's complete, errors omissions etc.

I have seen this long ago from I think either the Stewart or Clayton collection and only represents the holdings of that collector. In other words not complete a few not observed and we know some types where not made type C being most common types A rarest. So it is just a collector list but if Wayne can remeber who of the above two it belonged to it has some value that way to an old time legend.

Default WW1 Artillery Badge Checklist

Jaime,
To the best of my knowledge, this list was compiled by Bill McHugh, a collector from London, Ontario, who died in the 1980s. Chris Brooker knew him when he lived there and might be able to shed additional light on this. Paul is quite correct in saying the list is not complete - no list ever is.

Jaime, Just a word of caution about this list. The McHugh badges were documented before the mass production of repros. Some of the badges on this list were also reproduced. As well, there were fantasy badges produced that never existed. Many of the officers' badges from the Ottawa reproducer fall into the fantasy badge category, as well as many other battery badges.
