Greetings Ladies & Gentlemen, Just posting up a quick hello and introduction. I'm a militaria collector; I also buy and sell items from time-to-time, just to make a little extra cash. Many of these items come with other antiques and collectables; some I recognise, some I don't. One such lot was purchased just a few weeks ago and included two silver and enamel brooches; I was very happy to find both were made by English Silversmith, Charles Horner. The main reason I've joined the forum is to ask for help with items that may pass through my hands, but which I know nothing about; in return, I will do my best to help fellow forum members with any questions they may have relating to militaria.

Greetings also - I don't know if you stated where you are from but with the ...... "English Silversmith, Charles Horner." statement I take you are from Marillion country - AKA- UK?
Wow!, thanks everyone for the warm welcome; with everything that's going on in the World right now, a little friendliness goes a long way I think Bakersgma - Hi there! Rayo56 - I am indeed in the UK; currently North East England, "somewhere" between Hull and Scarborough. Hoping to move to Scotland at some point in the not-too-distant. I'm more a Hawkwind fan but do like some early Marillion, esp. 'Script for a Jester's Tear' era. Sabre123 - How's it going; great looking dog you have there. komokwa - Greetings my friend; always willing to help where I can. Christmasjoy - Many thanks Joy! Joe2007 - Thanks Joe! Houseful - Double thanks! Judy - Hi there Judy all-fakes - thanks; blimey!, is the cat always so well dressed? Sten
