Hello,
I'd post some photos in the past, but here's the last version after some sale/buy/trade...
Best regards & best wishes from France.

Just beautiful
I think I will attempt to duplicate the way you display the daggers. Excellent use of space

That's a great display case worthy of such a nice collection.
I bet it looks great all lit up at night.
Can you tell me what kind of plaque is displayed in the background of the 4th shelf from the top? It looks interesting.
Thanks

WoW! Very nice job you have made of that display Matarese & would I be right in thinking that you did a bit more of the buying than the selling from what I remember? 
War is when your government tells you who the enemy is.
Revolution is when you figure it out for yourself.

Thanks for taking the trouble to post the pictures.
Plaque is impressive. Have you ever seen another one like it and was there any story behind it (where it was taken from,and reason for presentation)when you acquired it?
It really sets off the backdrop of the display.

Dean, Yes the plaque is very impressive. Never see one like that before. The story is simple: buy by Craig Gottlieg some years ago  Best regards.

Very nice.......I need to do something akin to yours. I have many drawers full and I have posted some pictures in the past. I may make a resolution to photograph blocks of my collection and post it here.
There comes a time when you have to decide what to keep and what to pass on to another collector. For me that time is looming.....you can only have so many of one type.
