AVANT Volume 2 - An Anthology of American Militaria

In this second issue, An Anthology of American Militaria, we dig into military clothing with particular focus on the U.S armed forces during the Great Wars of the 20th century. 

We converse with Paul Milbury, Bob Chatt, and Jeff Spielberg, three vintage dealers and collectors passionate about History and Militaria. We talk with eight experts about the impact of social media on the vintage market. We discuss the deontological limits associated with collecting Militaria. 

We explore the West Coast Militaria collectors show in Pomona, an event you definitely can’t miss if you’re a Militaria fan. We also teach you how to decipher the labels attached to military garments.
