Military Artifact – MilArt
Welcome to MilArt, an acronym for Military Artifact. MilArt was originally published as a paper newsletter from 1996 to 1999 by my father, Clive M. Law, at which time it went dormant due to his other commitments with Service Publications.
Even though collectors of Canadian militaria are well served by two large, national, collectors’ organizations (and countless local groups) he felt that ready access, via the web, to quality articles would benefit our community.
Some articles shown here have been written exclusively for MilArt while others have previously appeared in other media. MilArt allows for colour images, and more of them than is normally found in print journals. A number of categories have been established and more will be added as needed.
With my father’s passing in the summer 2017 I picked up the torch to continue having MilArt accessible to the researcher and collector community as Service Publications came under new management.
To submit your article please send it to me at <richard.js.law@hotmail.com>. I will endeavour to post all articles within a couple of days of receipt.
In the meantime, feel free to browse the magazine by selecting a category on the menu bar above, leave comments and share with friends.
Thanks,
Richard
Clive, This is a terrific idea! I look forward to seeing what is posted in the future.
Another first rate idea from SP and CL
Nice to see MA resurrected.
Pretty awesome and looking forward to its launch. Where do you find the time?
Great idea and this has the potential of an excellent online encyclopedia on Canadian military material culture.
Well done Clive!
The German Demonstration Team article is top!
Excellent idea Clive, well done!
Excellent resource. This can grow into a great on-line reference!
Well done Clive, this will be a great on-line site for reference material.
A much needed Canadian site thanks to a man who shows such honest care.
I was a subscriber to MilArt way back when. Glad to see its return on-line.
I can’t thank you enough for providing this valuable resource.
Many thanks for providing a much needed reference.
Could Mark W. Tonne contact me. I have more information on a Canadian Army Coventanter Tank buried in a 3m hole 1944 in Surrey near Dorking. I am hoping he knows the unit they were issued to.
Richard, thank you for picking up the torch and both preserving, and carrying MilArt forward.
I am glad that the torch has been pick up to be carried forward. I look forward to what is to come. Your Dad would be so proud.
