Yes, some nice titles there, another neglected aspect of Australian collecting. I have previously had a brass ENGRS title very similar to that SIGNALS title Kingsley, it had previously been blackened.

WJ Amor and Stokes & Sons Pty Ltd made SIG CO and SIG TR titles which might explain some differences in those.

No 4 Coy, CAS, was a Victorian unit. It is interesting that the Victorian field and garrison arty, signallers and ASC (as well as some of their LH and Inf) used curved AFA AGA CAS and ASC titles while units of most other states had straight titles. Tasmanian AFA and AGA units also used curved titles until about 1912.
