May was a good month for me. I picked up a lot of stuff, including two bullion officer patches. I have attached side by side shots showing both the front and rear. Honest to goodness wear on both.

Nope, no doubt about it, those are pretty birds! I would be pleased to have either in my flock! Best regards, Bill Unland

Thanks alot for the compliments. I was very fortunate to add these two birds to my collection.
I have also been VERY fortunate to be involved with a great bunch of fellow collectors who have been very patient with me (both on and off list) and have taken the time to help me out with questions and photo reviews. They know who they are, and I say Thanks once again !!

Nice find Andrew! These were once quite easy to find and at reasonable prices too. It took me around 6 months to find a good example resently. Yours look to be in great shape and very attractive, congratulations!

The Feuer one came up and I jumped on it. Then, I got offered the Schupo one from someone who I had previously purchased from and who was downsizing their collection. So these birds hit within days of each other.
Honestly, I am happy that I got them as easily as I did. I doubt that will happen very often !!!
