I got the smaller cases in Winners here in Canada for $15 each.

The large case I found at second hand store, and I refinshed it, made an insert and put on new brass hardware. Cost me about $100 total.

Ron, one question please:

Why you put the "order of Stalin" in the display?

Soviet military stamps

Interesting site about Soviet military stamps. I do not collect stamps but there are some stamps from Soviet orders.

That you for that site. I have built a collection of Soviet stamps. I have enough duplicates that one of my sub-collections is Soviet military stamps. That is a terrific list of that type. I'm going to print it for reference.

My best stamp find in Georgia was a collection of mounted GPW postal art, including paintings of HSUs to go along with their commemorative stamps, that had once been an exhibit in the Tbilisi Museum of the Revolution. It still makes a nice display today.
