Its good to see that you have thanked the forum for all the help you have recieved Some members now demand recognition.

Love your collection, a bit of this, a bit of that. Very similar to mine. I can tell you have no area of collecting you just go for items that tickle your fancy

Battle damaged items are always a conversation piece and I like the way you collect different types of helmets. I noticed you have an RAF sweetheart brooch and what appealed to you about having a British casualty WW1 group in your collection? nicely displayed,any history on the man?

Thanks for posting.

As far as the adversity of my collecting... I just enjoy history, especially researchable items. I picked up the kia locally, it was a relative of the lady who I purchased it from, she mapped out the gentlemans family tree for me also. None of her kids were interested in it. His name was George Lane.
Sometimes I get a mixture of items in groupings, I like those the best, more bang for my buck.

Those are pretty rare, yours is the second one I've ever seen in a private collection.
