My collection and a Tribute to my Grandfather and those who served

[leej11]

I promised to post pictures of my collection and room as I get it set up so here is a little sample of how I display my bayonettes. I like glass vitrina's so I finally found one I liked to put some of my collection in. The only problem is I need about 2 more I have my bayonettes on the bottom and will show you each shelf as I get it set up. I have gotten alot of ideas from other collectors displays and am truly gratefull so if someone likes how I have something its good to return the favour Im only sorry that I am not as creative as others. I buy these blue stands on ebay and the only thing I dont like is the price

The form I was talking about just arrived so I got it set up and took some fotos. The stand is adjustable. I took the EK1 off and put the EK2 that came with it through the button hole for display. Hope you like

My first shelf is reserved for my Franco-Prussian War EKs and Medal Bars. I have a great interest in this area and hope to see this display grow I would also like to add a 1813 EK2 to this shelf
