New Visor Cap Book Coming Soon!

[Bob Lyons]

Hi

I finally have a copy in my hand !

Here is a picture of my hand to prove it

Attachment 427336


After many a sleepless night the printers have finally delivered......some, 10 copies to be precise. More are promised within the next two weeks as they have a slight backlog on another print run, so I guess if you would like one for Christmas please let me know.

I will visit the post office to get the postage rates and then put an advert on the forum with pictures of some pages and the contents page to give a better idea of whats in the book. The book is retailing for £30 from military mode publishing but for forum Gold members they are £25.00.

Please PM me if you would like to order a copy.

cheers

Nervous Tony

A very handy photo indeed !

I just received my copy directly from Tony, and I would like to congatulate him on a job well-done! Tony has traced the development of the visor cap from 1880 to 1945, and has succinctly noted the various changes in regulations (of which there were many) during that period thru the use of not only actual examples, but diagrams (with measurements) as well.

As I have stated before, visors cannot be studied in isolation, and to truly understand them one has to follow the history of their progression, and in this Tony has more than succeeded. No serious student should be without this book.

Congrats again, Tony!

Forgot to mention, I had mine too a few weeks ago!
I liked it very much indeed!
(exept for the editor!! But that's a peronnal thing, nothing to do with the quality of the information!!)
Like I stated, nice job, Tony!!
