I am a sprog to collecting cap badges having just started about a month ago. I have decided to concentrate on WW1 Canadian badges, although I have a few British WW1. At this time I have managed to get about 25 Canadian, in various conditions. As I have no car I have been relying on internet dealers, which I appreciate can be dodgy. I have purchased a display cabinet from amazon.ca, which holds about 30 badges. If anyone has any ideas of an alternative display method, please advise.

Hi Brian, welcom to the Forum. Your account is active and open for posts.
Canadian Expeditionary Force badges are a fascinating area to collect. Even with the CEF, you may wish to develop a focus, for example the Canadian Corps badges. Watch out for the repros.
