Flashback - 1980.........!

[QUOTE=Bond;567174]I was not a collector back then, cool to see yours.
All long gone did you say?[QUOTE]


Indeed, all long gone since about 1982 or 1983 - every single piece,
except for a small wooden display case, which I held onto for some
strange reason ( ! ? )

Began collecting militaria once again in the early 1990's, starting
with USAAF wings. I was into electric guitars and amplifiers
in the 1980's.........

Great collection you fellows had in the 80's. Sorry you let some or all pieces go but many of you collected while so young, and that's a good thing. I just started to collect and have nothing like you had 20 years ago. From the 80's, I still wake up with a hangover! Cheers.

Jerry, I see you also had a RLB cap badge that was not aluminium. Pity you don't have more pics of it.
You had a nice collection, what made you stop collecting these medals, if I may ask?

Tom

Hi Tom. The RLB was an aluminium example, it must be the pics. I stopped collecting medals after being stung with a duff Spanish type silver WB.

Hello! In this time a lot of pieces. And original

[lebus12]

Original and complete


But with moths, so I sold it....

Well I never really had a proper 35mm camera but I had a beta max video camera and this is a frame grab of my helmet lot at 1995

Nice collection of helmets, Rene. Do you still have most or all of these ?

G'day Steve

I'm minus and regretfully 4 of the single decal army helmets, otherwise all else are still in the pile with a couple of replacements
