Polish Para 3rd Battalion sign???

Hi George, that is a very good point. I have never seen the Brigade sign other than on a black background either. I will see if I can find a print date for the book. It makes perfect sence that they had to be copied from somewhere as it is doubtful the artist would have known every formation sign he had to paint without looking them up somewhere.

When I bought mine I didn't recall seeing that particular one in the group, but there were a lot of signs, but I am sure I would have latched onto anything Polish Airborne They were all the same sheild pattern too as far as I can remember. The prices back then varied according to the subject matter. Average price for a British Inf Div sign was about £25. But the more exotic units, Commandos etc were more expensive. I paid about £45 for mine. Certainly the price being asked today is far too much in my opinion. They are a nice decoration peice but that is all.

Cheers, Ade.

Ade, 100% correct!
I bought mine at Beltring...years ago...and they were indeed between £25 and £50.
The best were already gone but I was lucky to save this one...

Cheers,
Marc
