G'day Fellas & Cheers James what a fantastic lot here
I hope it's ok for me to post my small bits of BW here? any way here's some of mine - I wonder what the original owner of the belt wrote? counting days?

[James C]

no trouble Rene' post away mate are these items a new area of collecting for you or just a few pieces picked up over the years ,the tunic is nice and with the ct's present ,thanks for showing ,the bw belts are quite expensive here in the uk hence my reason for not picking an example up yet if you have more please show ,cheers james

Thanks James, not really a new area of collecting these are bits that came my way for one reason or another. I've had the belt since the 90's when they where once common in the shops so I picked out a more interesting example. A friend gave me the buckle with the tab just the other day.
