John says:

I started collecting Scottish insignia in 1985 when I was offered a group of nine Scottish badges by a dealer. There were eight headgear badges and a shoulder-badge and I instantly tucked a prayer-mat under my arm and visited my bank manager for a loan. This was the beginning of our Scottish collection, and I reckon that I've been writing the book on and off for about 8 years. It's been constantly amended as new knowledge has been gleaned and as the collection grew.
