sgtpete Posted March 10, 2015 Share #1 Posted March 10, 2015 I will be receiving my first pre ww2 navy uniform soon. I am looking for advice on how to display, store and care for it. I couldn't find a sticky thread about it. Thanks in advance for any help as I enter this area of collecting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blitzkrieg gsd Posted March 10, 2015 Share #4 Posted March 10, 2015 I like to keep all my uniforms in garment bags that zip up. There not any good for displaying them but they do a good job keeping them safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
