GM1 Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 I'm pleased to present my book, published on the occasion of the XVII European Conference for Phaleristics in Brussels (31/05-02/06/2024). It covers all Belgian official honorary distinctions for the First World War, some service insignia as well as a few unofficial distinctions that were nevertheless tolerated. In chronological order of foundation date, with photos of the orders and medals, variants, certificates and images of people bestowed. If interested, please contact me through DM. Best regards, GM1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megan Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 Looks interesting and beautifully presented. Is it available as PDF or dead tree only? How much does it cost? And would you like a review on Medals of the World? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Megan Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 OK, thanks. Once you have sold your initial print run, please consider a PDF/Print-on-demand model - it prevents all the wonderful information you have gathered going out of print and being lost! It's also easier to update as new information comes to light 🤓 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Megan Posted October 14 Share Posted October 14 Wim, do you have any copies left? I posted a copy of my review on the OMSA website and someone asked where he could buy the book. What is the postage to the US (I think that's where he is, but no point in asking until I know if there's a book you could send him!)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
