    Identification Assistance.

    Hello All,

    First, I am not an Imperial collector, so make no claims to know squat about the subject. OK, now that I have that out of the way, I have a question. Would you folks here at this forum have a problem with me listing what could be several Imperial (WWI) medals for identification??

    The reason I ask is that I have been asked by a co-worker to assist his "club" of aviation buffs in identifying, and cataloging, some of these medals. I have often bragged about our great site here, thus the request. He's been after me for a couple of years to do this and they have "many" medals just thrown into drawers. I'm sorry I can't remember the name of the group off the top of my head, but they had some beautiful displays set up at "Wings Over The Rockies" museum a few years ago, and have now moved to a location I think north of Denver.

    Anyway, I told him I obviously have no knowledge of these decorations, and if it was made easy for me (no driving all over God's creation), and some of you guys were agreeable, I might give it a go. I can tell you, the last time I visited, while they were still at Wings Over The Rockies, they had A LOT of items that were sadly thrown together in drawers.

    Anyway, I was just looking around here and I thought about it again. Who know's, could be a bunch of junk, or something very interesting.

    Thanks.

        Thanks Guys!!

        Ralph, I'm especially glad you responded, your collection is amazing. Greg, I didn't know you were into imperial.

        Anyway, I'll get in touch with him and make arrangements to get some of the stuff together. I do know they had some very nice EK's (my thing). They also had a very nice PLM, that I believe was a copy from around the 1930's.

        Thanks again.
