Description
The classic Eagle, Globe, and Anchor emblem has adorned US Marine Corps collars, caps, and helmets for nearly 150 years. Early variations of the iconic EGA have fascinated collectors for decades, leading Frederick L. Briuer, PH.D. to write an authoritative reference book on the subject in 2016. This "US MARINE CORPS EMBLEMS" USMC WW1 EAGLE GLOBE & ANCHOR PIN EGA REFERENCE BOOK is in near mint, unread condition, with only some light scattered storage wear evident (most pictured). Otherwise, the book is in near mint shape, with no other damage. Most interestingly, it boasts an elegantly illustrated dust jacket over hardcovers, and sports 170 pages full of descriptive text, period pictures, and color photographs of almost every different kind of EGA emblem worn through WW1, including late 1800s/early 1900s jeweler made Officer's cap, collar, and epaulette ornaments, spiked helmet plates, saddlecloth leather EGAs, 1918 bronze service collar "French Birds", turn of the 20th century enlisted man's brass cap emblems, P-1916 EGAs, 1918-1919 enlisted man's EGA collar disks, and much, much more. A beautiful example of a "US MARINE CORPS EMBLEMS" USMC WW1 EAGLE GLOBE & ANCHOR PIN EGA REFERENCE BOOK. Now celebrating over 20 years on eBay.
