Catalog of World War I Medals

At the age of 25, Maurice Frankenhuis published his Catalog of Medals relative to World War I, describing with photographs the largest private collection in the world which he assembled and then subsequently donated to the British Museum and the Kadman Museum. It was published in English and in Dutch. It is considered to be the most comprehensive reference work of medallic issues related to World War I.
