stratasfan Posted December 6, 2017 Share #1 Posted December 6, 2017 Hi! I have seen Wm. Emerson's "Encyclopedia of US Army Insignia and Uniforms" mentioned many times on the forum. Someone told me that it is a fabulous "must-have" book for collecting and reference. Was wondering if anyone could share some photos of some of the inside pages, so that I could see what it is like? This is something I think I would like to eventually get, but would love to see it. Then I would know if it is something I'd really like to save towards! However, our library hasn't got it, so I thought someone on here might be able to share a couple of pages to get an idea of what it is like? Many thanks!

BEAST Posted December 6, 2017 Share #2 Posted December 6, 2017 I'm seconding the sentiment that it is a "must-have." Here is a link that will allow you to look at a preview version https://books.google.com/books?id=trbBXKeHO3sC&printsec=frontcover&dq=emerson+insignia&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj_zoiOqPbXAhUT92MKHXcPCM4Q6AEIMTAB#v=onepage&q=emerson%20insignia&f=false Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RustyCanteen Posted December 7, 2017 Share #8 Posted December 7, 2017 You might be able to locate it via inter-library loan, and that would allow you to know if it would be useful to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
