This is an extract of my Master Militaria Catalogue dealing with collectable Artillery insignia worn by Army, Navy, Air Force and other uniformed organisations.  It includes cap badges, collar badges, arm badges, buttons and shoulder titles.  Most items are British or Commonwealth.  This page was updated on Thursday, 25 September 2008.

Prices are in British Pounds Sterling and you may order online or order by mail.

With effect from 1 June 2007, there will be a minimum charge of £1.50 postage and packing for all orders. If Royal Mail costs exceed this amount, then the charge will be cost-price, i.e. the price of the stamps. click here for postage costs.

The first 6 figures of each line is our Stock Serial Number - use this when ordering. Where applicable, the next set of figures is a reference to standard insignia reference books.
