Now a major event in Chateauroux, the Military Collector Show organized by the ARVMC (Association for the Renovation of Military Vehicle Centers) took place on Sunday April 7, 2024.

This show focuses on militaria, from the Napoleonic era to the present.

Invited by Georges Rebardeau, president of the ARVMC, “Les Amis de La Martinerie” presented the collection of corps insignia entrusted to the association by Franck Boursin. Nearly 3,000 corps badges which interested numerous connoisseurs and visitors, despite the fact that none of them were for sale. Some of these badges are extremily rare and are highly thought after by collectors.

Thank you to our volunteers, Frédéric, Jean-Pierre, Jérémie and Martial for their availability, and Jean and Claude for their technical support.
