Default Canadian Army Pay Corps Pre-WW1 Officers Badge
Hi all, I picked this up last gunshow for a OK price. I normally wouldn't bother with Pay Corp stuff but the badge was so beautiful I couldn't resist. I think the badge predates the CEF but was worn throughout WW1.

Enjoy.

Greg

I've had another look at your picture... the detail is excellent and using a grey backround really makes the badge jump out at you... I'm going to have to try that.... I place my backround matte material on a small box lid and then punch the lugs through the paper... this gives a flush fit to the backing and gets rid of any shadows... ( I don't know why I'm giving you a photo tip as you are a far better photographer than I ever will be! )... jim
