Police Display

[Dave C.]

Just something I tossed together the other day as a "police sampler" and I thought it looked good enough to share. Unfortunately I didn't take a bigger/better picture while it lasted.

Very nice Dave!
Beats a box of Godiva's any day.

That is one nice sampler, you have some very rare items in there.
Sure would have liked to have seen a larger foto.

Thanks for the comments! I really need to figure out better displays to merge some of this stuff...like Bill U. did in his excellent display work.

Dave ... Great Display (!)

Dave ... What a Great Display (!)

Congrats! ... It really shows what we'd like to find in a 'sampler' or that old Veteran's war chest! Best, Dave/dblmed

Thanks again for the great comments! It was rather entertaining to toss it all in together and see what came out. Although a little more work sorting it back all out to where it came from.

Hannes, I'lli get you those photos of that tin, I just need to pull it back out photograph.

Orange on green is for the Gendarmerie, a favorite subject of mine! There are also a lot of orange on a gray/green backing examples in the market that are associated with Feld-Gend. Hope that helps!

Now that is an anything but mediocre police display.....
