Pros and Cons
When this arrived I became very excited. I had recently bought a hat looking very much like the Russian hat. (Practically was one) The star is great looking, full-metal and has a nice texture. It looks just plain awesome when you wear it, and you feel like a Russian. The only down side to it, is... -
Decent Condition
It arrived on time and in decent condition. There were scratches on it and it appears to be a costume pin, probably not authentic but I'm not sure. It's also not a pin like how I imagined it to be, with a needle-like thing attached to it. Instead, it is two pieces of metal on the back that you...

Collecting uniforms of the Soviet Union is fairly new, because the Soviet regime did not collapse until December 1991. This book picks up the story of the women in Soviet military and paramilitary uniform that came into service in 1941, and takes the reader all the way through to 1991. Extensive effort has been made by the author to include every possible detail relating to Soviet women’s uniforms in all military and paramilitary services. Translated tables providing an extensive look at rank, service and Corps identification have been included. The book features an extensive amount of information for the collector of Soviet women’s uniforms – not just through photographs and illustrations, but by providing buyer’s tips and important information to help identify originals from reproductions. There are no illegal fakes around, because the Soviet Union never had any copyright laws in this area, but there are many new items on...

Caldwell Towers South residents remember war heroes thanks to tenant
AMHERSTBURG — Those who live in the Caldwell Towers South apartment building were able to remember the nation's war heroes thanks to one of the building's tenants.
Neil Deslippe set up his collection of memorabilia in the lobby last Wednesday with the collection being on display through last weekend. Deslippe estimated he has 200-300 pieces in his collection with the bulk of them included in the display.
"I took interest about 15 years ago about collecting personal military items," said Deslippe, noting the collection started with such items as cap badges and does not include guns or anything of the latter nature.
"One thing led to another and I ended up with all this."
Describing he and his wife as "back road drivers," Deslippe said many of his finds are discovered in antique stores locally and in other areas of the province. He said others have bigger collections, but he is proud of what he has and noted his father-in-law is a veteran.
Arnhem Jim: WWII Parachute Regiment Cap Badge - A Forensic Study
The WWII cap badge of the Parachute Regiment of the British Army is another famous, and much sought after cap badge by collectors. In addition, because of its fame, the regiment has seen wide popularity with re-enactment groups throughout the world. As a consequence of these two factors it is the frequent and continuous target of both restrikes and fakes by replicators seeking monetary gain. Another compounding element is that the cap badge incorporates a crown and Imperial lion (sometimes referred to as 'dog and basket'). When the regiment was originated in 1940, under the reign of George VI it was the king’s crown. In white-metal. ‘Royal Crest. In white-metal. Sealed (pattern) 25th March 1943’, according to Kipling and King (Vol. II, pp. 72-73). With the ascension of Elizabeth II to the throne in 1953, the badge underwent a transition to a queen’s crown. ‘A St....

This is another early cap from the Coleman treasure trove, but likely post mid-1934 with the introduction of SS clothing regulations, RFSS tags etc. I never cease to be amazed at how this early, i.e. pre-1937 or so pieces of uniform survived, when one considers the passage...
