Very nice, Martin. I especiwlly like the CupAl and aluminum tyopes because they hold their original color so well.

Hello Bob,............. true albeit Aluminium examples if not cleaned can also develop a very desirable patina..............the Badge posted below has never been cleaned hence has developed a dark a Patina...................incredible when one thinks about it that a pure Alloy like Aluminium can retain it's finish yet after 70 years or so, yet can still develop such a patina.
Regards Martin
PS if my memory serves me correct Bob the SA tinnie that I posted above (earlier on this thread) is the same Badge that I purchased from you.
