4.0 out of 5 stars A must-have for the cap badge collector, 5 Jul 2001

By	tom@chisman.com (London) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Military Badge Collecting (Hardcover)

Although Gaylor could greatly improve this book by adding colour photographs of the badges (I suspect this may have something to do with getting them all in one place again) it remains an informative, entertaining and valuable resource.

There is a military badge 'bible' known as Kipling&King which, although authoratative and superior in presentation, lacks readability and is very sterile. Gaylor's book is an interesting read - even for people who don't collect cap badges - and is [...] cheaper than the two K&K books!

I only wish he could do more on "Order of Precedence" and a bit more history on some of the more rare battalions. Nonetheless, it's the first book I reach for when out shopping for badges!

I would love to hear from any other collectors out there: maybe even from J.G. himself ? I have loads of suggestions for the 7th Edition !

4.0 out of 5 stars An essential guide to anyone who collects cap badges, 6 Feb 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Military Badge Collecting (Hardcover)

A very informative book that gives excellent details on variations to standard cap badges. This is an invaluable aid to spotting those badges that are less than 100% genuine.
The pictures are excellent and help to identify any variations in die used to cast the badges, coupled with excellent descriptions of the badge designs and regimental histories.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good book on British Badges, 6 Jun 2001

By	dawdler@ntlworld.com (UK) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Military Badge Collecting (Hardcover)

this is a good book for those who collect cap badges of the British Military. It covers the years from 1881 to 1996 with over 800 photos of the badges.

My only problem is that some of the photos are unclear and in black and white, but other than that it is a very fine book.
