Nice display! Your collection looks very neat in it!

What I don't understand is why after clicking on the Attached Thumbnails, the pics we see are almost as small as the thumbnails themselves, when in fact your pictures should show quite larger, as they are in the 46.x - 48.x KB range! Maybe EricFG will be able to post them in a way we can see them as usually. Dolf |

I am a theme collector, Jubilee, Labor, Railway, Mothers, etc, etc, etc. After I display medals of a theme, I do not display duplicates, unless it fits within another theme, IE, Meritorious Labor of the GPW hangs in both my Labor case and GPW case. Also I have a BAM in my Labor Case and Railway case. I do not collect for profit, just for the joy of collecting and the beauty of Soviet medals and orders. Most important of all, regardless of how you collect, medals kept in a box or drawer have no aesthetic value.

pictures maybe working? eric, the god of fotoshop helped me out. hopefully these will work.
in these pictures, assuming they work, you can see the type of pins i used to mount them. the 't' head pin sworked really well i must say. eric, the brads that you used are similar in function if not form. i suppose that it would be up to you which you used. depending on background color and stuff it is in my opinion 6 of one half dozen of another. your displays eric are beautiful! thanks again! so here are the other pictures i took! eric, whatever you did, you did it amazingly well!

It's better now It works, you see!
Latinmajorac, may I ask what you have on the background of the display case? No glass on the front, right? Thanks, Dolf |

yep, no glass on the front. i am thinking of installi ng a few lights around the inside to provede a back glow effect. if i were to put glass in from of it, i would use 1/8th inch plexiglass. it is less likely to break and is much easier to deal with when compared to glass thanks riley! i think saving is going to be the order of the day... christmas time will definately buy something nice!

I asked about the background because on my displays I habe black foam, but it looks like sponge, see what I mean?
Yours looks much nicer, very uniform and flat, as if it was some kind of smooth card. Very attractive! Keep on rolling Dolf |
