Comments: This is the ultimate guide to New Zealand Army and Police Badges – now reprinted as an updated edition and a very desirable publication and a must for any army badge collector.
This book is the most concise and complete attempt at listing and classifying all the badges used in New Zealand and overseas.
It includes badges from the early New Zealand Maori Land Wars, through the Volunteers period, extensively covers the multitudinous official and unofficial insignia worn by the Reinforcements Battalions of the Great War through the Second World War, Malayan Emergency, Korean War, Vietnam War, various UN international deployments of Peacekeepers, and goes right through to present day (2011) which saw many of our remaining military corps and regiments combined, so that today the range and diversity of these fascinating badges has been greatly reduced
This is an update of the 1997-published New Zealand Army Badge Reference and price guide by Geoff Oldham (New Zealand’s leading Militaria dealer/author).
