Re: The collection of an almost thirteen old.

Re: The collection of an almost thirteen old.
Good idea , I wont do it here though , I will start up a thread in the Aviation section, when time permits , on cloth badges , its really hard to teach someone straight away with anything to do with it , as so many variations and country of origin etc.
Re: The collection of an almost thirteen old.
How do you know they are fake? I actually have bought A LOT more items, including 20 books. It isn't a big deal, because one thing won't hurt. I'll post a picture of my recent collection.
