Jacky Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 (edited) Wonderfull,When used patiently and correct nothing wrong with this method, as long as it isn't meant to remove original paint. In this case, it was used for ugly painting, so no probs with it.Just love the award!Also the grandofficers star mentioned above here.Kind regardsJacky Edited November 17, 2006 by Jacky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oli4vercammen Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 indeed, that one with the swords is about 1880-1900 and I guess that the other is around 1930-1940.that one with the swords would fit nicely next to my civilian one of that period Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErikMuller Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 The strange thing is that there is nothing on the back to attach the star to a uniform. Just small holes in the beam points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
