Nice ones Lee. I have always like "KAG" crosses. A plain front but a stylish pin on the reverse.
Those little stands do come in handy.

Thanks guys

Thats the spirit of collecting, being able to share and admire with other collectors

I was reading this thread again from the beginning and I have to say there are some real treasures here, most of witch I still hope to get my grubby little hands on someday

It makes me want to sell my whole collection to go on some EK shopping spree frensy

What I have been able to acomplish is to collect most of the generic EK1s with a case. Whether or not they have always been together one can only hope but I believe most of them belong together. Here is my cased S-W.

Welcome talltom, it starts with just a harmless EK2 but then it grows into something dangerous

For some of us married guys at least

Nice cross

Lee you are putting together a very nice collection. You actually have
more cased examples than I do. Some of the more exotic crosses are still out
there. In fact last month there were quite a few of the harder to find crosses
popping up for sale. Although prices seamed a bit over the top to me.

Nice cross Tom.
Every Imperial Ek collection should have a least one "KO" in it.
They are believed the standard "awarded" cross.

Thanks Greg

I have 15 cased crosses total and 3 with karton. I will have to post them tommorrow when theres more light. Thats my main problem is having enough light to photograph them. Its rained all summer here

Global warming my AXX!

Although prices seamed a bit over the top to me.

Thats why I didnt get any of them

Im really getting tired of people trying to sell items for 2x what they go for on ebay and still have the nerve to tell me thats cheap

Allthough the KMST crosses I have seen on ebay lately went for outragious prices

But as always I will keep an eye out
