manayunkman Posted March 12, 2012 Share #1 Posted March 12, 2012 This is a very old grouping of mine. One of the few I still have. I at one time had this man's name but it got away from me. I hope you guys like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris3bs Posted March 12, 2012 Share #7 Posted March 12, 2012 Please make sure those medals do not stay on that cushioning over a long period of time - unless it is cotton.. . It will eventaully eat away the medal. It has happened to me. :pinch: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
