The INDIANA JONES OF EBAY does it again !!...........I have managed to purchase THREE militaria collections.....& TWO Police collections.....mainly patches, badges,insignia & headgear.
One of the main collection of patches & insignia, is a real treasure trove......I showed samples from it to one dealer who wanted to buy the entire collection...but I would rather let YOU the collectors have a chance than him obtain them solely for profit.
The origianal owner collected some older RARER patches...and also filled the gaps of 'difficult / impossible to find 'items with good reproduction patches. I am Not an expert...........so this collection of patches will be listed as low priced NO reserve........there are genuine and some good repros...I am not sure which is which....come on bag a bargain.............any q's please email me.
DO NOT MISS OUT
