Ed_Haynes Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 Nice, Gerd. Many thanks for this. This is nice eye candy. Even though many of these have been posted elsewhere here, it is good to see them all in one place, as it gives an idea of the coherence of a collection.

Gerd Becker Posted May 25, 2006 Author Share Posted May 25, 2006 Thanks, Christophe. I am glad, you like it. The black background is indeed very good, but you can see every single atom of dust on it Gerd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rick Research Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 Yes, displayed makes a great impression. I only have one case for "rotating displays" and everything else is tucked away (and sometimes forgotten) in storage...so the only display I have is SCANS.

Gerd Becker Posted May 25, 2006 Author Share Posted May 25, 2006 Glad, you guys like it. In my opinion this beautiful awards have to be displayed and presented in a decent way. Whenever i look at them, i see the stories and faces behind these orders and medals and that wouldn?t be as much fun as if i had to store them in boxes, i guess. Thanks for the compliments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stogieman Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 Hi Gerd. Nice collection. Looks like it has been more fun and productive than the minis....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerd Becker Posted May 25, 2006 Author Share Posted May 25, 2006 Hi Gerd. Nice collection. Looks like it has been more fun and productive than the minis.......Hi Rick,yes, indeed it is. You know, i loved my minis, but i never could afford a traceable mini-chain or was patient enough to save up for one and this one is really big fun for me now as its much more personal.Thanks Gerd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
