baby Blue Max

As some of you may know, I have a real soft spot for Imperial miniatures
and a minature PLM has been on my bucket list sense I bought my first
mini some 25 years ago.

This one came available and there is no way that I could not get it even if it ment
making payments on it but the wait was more than worth it.
It's a 16mm button device made in the 1920s by Godet. It is die struck silver
with a deep blue glass enamel. It has the original ribbon with silver metallic stripes.
It's small so getting a good picture has proven to be problematic but in hand, it is a little work of art.

It has some wear to it and there is a scratch in the upper arm but given how
rare originals are, I am more than happy to overlook these flaws.

So the wait is over? Must have been a great day having that package land on the doorstep.

Well deserved. Congrats.

What a beautiful piece. A Godet no less. And fantastic photos and montage's. Now you got me wanting one!

Thanks Michael,
I was surprised and relieved when I saw the package on the counter when
I came home from work. It was not cheap and it was sent without tracking
so I am more than happy it arrived safe and sound.

Ouch...no tracking? I would have been on a knifes edge that whole time especially knowing how important this was for you.

I sure hope other members here see and appreciate such a nice and rare item this is.
