Many thanksFrom what can be seen in this vintage catalog, it is that if single dates are sold, it is because there were badges without numbers so that the corresponding date could be added later.
Thanks for posting that. It answers the question as to why the No date badges existed.From what can be seen in this vintage catalog, it is that if single dates are sold, it is because there were badges without numbers so that the corresponding date could be added later.
Great examples Steve!While the case was open , I wanted to show a couple of more Kaiser Prizes
One with 3 wins
and the other shows the old way they added an extra date
