Just a show & tell, I've stuck my 14 - 15 Star groups in a display, think that's all of them anyway, my other WWI medals are a couple of 14 Star groups, BWM & Victory pairs, singles.
I'm bored.
I love 1914 Stars but I've only got a couple.
Anyway, I'd been bought this case & stuck my meagre Imperial German badges & medals etc in it, just to make it look pretty, but decided that I'd be better off emptying some pages in my bulging but not very exciting medal albums. These groups fit fairly well, I'm prepared to overlay medals on ribbons in the instances wjere the overlaid ribbons are modern replacement
This isn't the way they'll end up one day, properly displayed & labelled etc.
The group with Mercantile Marine's a bugger - bought it recently from America, it arrived wrapped in a folded envelope, rattling around in a small box, in a big box, so the package was fairly bullet proof from the outside, it just does'nt do a group sewn to a bar much good, bouncing around for a few thousand miles loosely wrapped - result, torn bloody ribbon.
Need 14 Star groups - missed that flaming one on the e-tables the other day.
