kind of like seeing a CHERRY '57 chevy

without an engine.....

sigh...

:blush:

not to mention "Dragnet"...

hell of a good man.

joe

what a terrific group!!

you've done very nicely with this one.

joe

Herr Card!

couldn't have said it any plainer.

he deserves NO ATTENTION and NO BUSINESS

based on his morals - actually, lack thereof.

contributing to him in any way validates him.

i do not claim perfection or purity, but also do

not knowingly attempt to defraud. he does.

i wonder if pulling the wings off of flies gives him pleasure....

1150 pages!!

DA-YAM!!!!

i'm going to have to learn russian, or get it translated.

just on '14 EK 1's ...

wow.

Ta Kev.

Lucky I got to the thread before Chris B. did; his response at Defcon One level might've brought the site down.

sorry i missed it... :unsure:

gordon-

it is POSSIBLE that he died of a primary, or infectious peritonitis,

perhaps as a result of a ruptured appendix, or similar medical

misadventure...

BUT!

much more likely that it was an infection caused by penetration

of the abdomen by a hostile metallic object.....

very common in the american civil war. less than 100 years later,

with simple penicillin, many who would have died didn"t.

when i think of the tremendous advances which have been made

in the past century, i am truly impressed.

joe

they are ALL worth viewing!!

nice EK.

joe

PK-

150, i'll pay shipping, and make your bike spic and span to boot!

joe

what a treasure for your progeny!

be sure to include your recollections.

joe

one of the gems i'd love to have....

and then display the reverse....

joe

perfectly fine, worn, EK 2.

joe

erik-

i suspect you have had a fine time collecting these

wonderful pieces. i am trying to imagine where/from who/

how long you've been after them?

gordon's idea re: a reference concerning this might be a

challenge, but you've got a good start!

joe

can't say much bad about someone who pays

top dollar for this...

not likely to get his money back real soon, but then

that's not why he he bought it.

joe

such a pleasure to see a

- rare piece

- in wonderful condition

- with the presentation case

- and the award document!!

just for the record, is the photograph that of

the recipient??

you've done very nicely with this!

joe

yep!!

sometimes the backs are more fun to

look at than the fronts

joe

great pictures!

and i suspect the region is beautiful at this time of year!

joe

given your sculpting talents, my vote is FOR the diorama!

fascinating accounts posted recently, for which i offer

my thanks!

joe

lovely to see this evolution!

gets better all the time.

thanks,

joe

joe

joe

i'd really like to see the finished product

if you are so inclined!

joe

drooling....

i, too, would like some info on the 4th decoration.

joe
