This topic is very good though as ribbons and cases are rarely addressed


It´s really intersting to view this thread and I think it´s a very good training!

That´s what I like here - you would never find such a detailed deal with a subject in a German Forum.

Just great!

Kind of reminds me of you, Dave!

Can anyone else show close-ups of their ribbons? I'd especially be interested to see how worn ribbons look along the edge.

Original pre '45 ribbon, actually worn by holder. It is very dirty but the border is well scalloped in areas.........

Even a very well worn ribbon will show uniformity in the edging and weave!


I hope all of these help!
