my IAB / ISA collection so far...

[BROBS]

Don't mind the khaki background .. will be reed green HBT when I am done
Just a frame I had some US items in that have been moved.

I have one or two more photos (of IAB in wear) and another bronze IAB on the way to add (Junker).. and one silver Assman that is in a different display with a document group. (including a citation for Silver IAB of course!)

I love IAB's !! and photos of IAB's in wear!!

You've got a real nice collection! Congrats! And the hunt continues!

[BROBS]

it always does... and my wallet continues to get lighter!

I have really only recently (past few months or so) decided to focus some on IAB's and a few other areas.

thanks,

Hi Brian,

already a very nice collection of IABs and it's always nice to seen them!!!
Congrats!!!
When I finished my first 50 IABs I think I was the most happy person on the world
I think you will find a thread about it here on WAF if you are interested.
This was my IAB collection before I had to sell a lot of them in the last time.
I hope you will find more of them, because they are really special and I still like them a lot!!!

Sven,
that is beautiful my friend! Maybe someday I can come close to that amount.
I only have 20 at the moment.

I am buying these along with US items of many kinds and other badges and German items as well. Maybe someday I will focus even more and be able to acquire even more IAB's!!!

thanks for showing.. that is some real inspiration. It's a shame you had to sell some.

Hi Brian

A great looking collection...you have some very nice looking examples.
I also like the your period photo's of IAB's in wear.

Being a fellow IAB enthusiast, I can fully appreciate your sentiment for this award.

You are off to a great start; I look forward to seeing your new additions when they arrive.

Thanks for showing...

Best regards, fischer

my IAB / ISA collection so far...

Fischer,
Thank you... I try to only pick up badges with what I consider 'decent' or better finish. The one with the least finish is probably the L/56.. But at least some remains.
The photos just add to the collection and enrich it with true history of the men who wore these awards. The one furthest leftward is a Luftwaffe man!

I too look forward to something... a thing I heard through the grapevine.

That you are writing a book on IAB's!

You have a sure customer here,
I anxiously wait.
