    Hi guys - I had a rainy afternoon off and thought it was about time I got out a few boxes and took some photos! Unfortunately I couldn't photograph everything as it would've taken me all day unwrapping everything, let alone the time it would take to find it all...

    Anyway, here's a healthy sample which I hope you will enjoy. It'd be great to hear some opinions and do feel free to ask any questions!

    Let's start with some Imperial/pre-1939 items

    EK2s

    Other German awards

    German photos

    German paper items

    British WW2 medals (US Korea medal shouldn't be there). Spot the missing star!

    Assorted stuff

    And finally, whilst it was out - the beginnings of my Cold War collection

    Thanks Carl, hopefully a shiny new KVK1 will be sitting there soon!

    I can't for the life of me remember where I got those from... ;)

    That's a nice collection you have there. I like the different EK and the wounded badges. The Km album is a nice one.
