Dear Chris,

Wonderful display! At the last SOS there was a dealer/collector who had, I believe, all of the dates in one case. It makes for an impressive display indeed. Although I collect Luft I have thought of trying to get the whole series. Detlev sold a badge like your center one a few Fridays ago.

Please keep posting them as you get them. Are yours issues? Silver?

Chris,

Nice collection for one, and for two, can you post an image of the reverse on the badges? I would like to see what differences there is in the hardware setup.
