My favourite pattern of skull! I call it the "ghost baby"...
-
Thank you Arran, I love the moniker! F-B would not approve of me using cute baby names but I'm sure he would allow this one because it is accurate.

Man... those are one of the rarest type of early skulls. Hope i can find one as well. Congrats Al, Fits great with the rest!

Your very welcome Al, glad to help! And that is a beautiful collection of that rare variety. I dont think I've seen that on a cap before, excellent pics for reference. You must have a photo archive of caps for every varient tk you have

Then I guess I will refrain from sharing my pets names here on the forum.

Yes, most of these pics are found on this forum due to the generous nature of some collectors. seeing the badge in use helps validate it for me and to keep the naysayers at bay. I try to return the favor by posting all my variants for future collectors.

Not necessary, it's just something I adhered to for our colleague Friedrich-Berthold in return for his generosity in sharing his vast archive and expertise on the subject matter.
Feel free to call them what you want
by F-B "My friend, my aid to you, such as it is, rests on the condition that you refrain from cute names in my company.
There is nothing cute, really, about any of it.
My collages have the point to underscore the brutality, folly, and tragedy of death cult kitsch as a manifestation of war, society and culture.
When collectors transform these things into a kind of toy or children's doll, or something, then there is something very perverse about it.
Duerer's Totentanz in the epoch made clear that death was a truth and certainty for everyone."
Those who somehow want to proclaim that they scorn death, when, in fact, they have murdered so many whose lives would surely have brought great benefit
to succeeding generations hardly deserve anything cute.
We are all gripped by this story and its regalia, but no one should nurture naive ideas about it all.
I post these things as a warning and as part of my own attempt to work through my own interest in something which as a mature adult strikes me more and more
as a huge, needless tragedy, the price of which just keeps rising as the world stumbles or not into another major war, that is, a larger war than whatever you
wish to depict now as being."
