Original era issue and photography. An interesting lot contained in two display mounts both from an old Arizona collection we purchased in 2013. The group has waited in a storage tub for all those years until it's recent rediscovery. The grouping centers around the awarding of the Chinese Nationalist Army, Navy, Air Force Medal, Class II, Grade B to T/5 William Haggan, RA16004150, who served with the Peiping (Beijing) Headquarters Group. The lot includes The numbered medal, 5806, a small cloth storage pocket displaying the same number with ribbon bar, large award document again with the same number. Further documentation includes a US War Department transmittal letter dated 12 January 1948, confirming the award to now Mr. Haggan, and a 1947 dated English translation of the Chinese document stating the matching medal number 5806 and document number 00250. Included with the grouping is a period Chinese Military Police Badge, an unknown badge displaying an enameled shield at center in red-white-blue, a senior officers badge with Chinese characters on the reverse, an assortment of Nationalist Chinese coat buttons, a small cotton Chinese Nationalist Flag, Chinese Boy Scout buckle, two Chiang Kai Shek patriotic buttons, a souvenir spoon with a Chinese Dragon on the handle, three small patriotic buttons, four period bw photos of Chinese officers, several of whom are shown wearing the Senior Officers badge, eleven period bw photos, perhaps commercially produced, documenting a parade in China, one of the photos shows US troops marching in formation. Lastly, four Chinese postcards of the Forbidden City and a 100 dollar note from the Central Bank of China. Nothing has been removed from the grouping, and it remains as it was at the time of our purchase 9 years ago. Should provide some interesting research.
