WELCOME TO PASS IN REVIEW!!

We have an ever-changing stock of uniforms, badges, insignia and the like. Although our specialty is British Militaria, we usually have a wide assortment of items from around the globe to complement an extensive array of British, Canadian and Commonwealth material. Feel free to browse, or to contact us with any questions or requirements you may have.  We also buy individual items and entire collections--let us know what you would like to sell.

For nearly 30 years we have supplied militaria to collectors, reenactors, museums, and theater groups, as well as the film, television and advertising industries.  Our particular interest in Scottish items has led to special relationships with pipe bands and other members of the Scottish community.  We look forward to serving your needs now and in the future.

We apologize to all our loyal customers for the long time it has taken us to update the site.  This effort is now underway, section by section. We're keeping the Canadian section pretty much current, and the latest areas to be worked on are the British Commonwealth nations.  Something new we're doing is noting the date of the last update following the name of the section (small letters, as "26 Feb 08").  This ought to be of some help to all of you.

Another thing:  it's outside our control, but shipping costs have again gone up, thanks to the post office's insistence that small mailers and private citizens rather than large junk mailers be the ones to meet the cost of postal inefficiency.  We will continue to make every effort to find the most logical and economical way to send your goods, but this is becoming more difficult as the post office eliminates various categories of mail in favor of  simplified  service and increased revenue--both to their benefit, if not to ours.

A quick word about some of the abbreviations and symbols used in this catalogue.  First of all, everything offered here is original and authentic.  Copies, reproductions and restrikes are all so labelled, or are in their own sections.  For British and Empire/Commonwealth badges we use three designations for the crowns which appear on badges from different periods:  "QVC" indicates the Victorian, pre-1901 crown.  "K/C" stands for "King's crown", the pattern used from 1901-1952.  And, finally, "Q/C" is the present pattern "Queen's crown", in use since 1953.  Something new we've just begun to add is to use "<" or ">" to indicate whether the badge (usually collar badges and formation patches) faces left or right, where such knowledge truly matters.

"Br" means that the badge is brass, while "bz" means bronze or bronzed (usually referring to British OSD--officers' service dress--badges).  "Wm" is white metal, "bim" is used where the badge is made of brass and white metal.  "S/G" means a badge is silvered and gilt (as with officers' dress badges). Finally, we use the symbol "**" following an entry to indicate that a pair of that particular item is available--the pricing, however, is always on a single item basis.

Last but not least:  prices, unfortunately, are subject to change without notice

Good hunting, have fun...and thank you!
