Trophy -Belts 1959 - 1983 1st Belt

[billy]

Hi here are a couple of Belts I have just acquired will set up an Album but wished to post some photos on here for you to see, there is nothing exciting - generic badges really and quality on some can only be described as "Worn" but a lot have makers marks so usefull to some? There is one I don't know as yet haven't started looking for it, Ireland is about to kick off so bear with me as an going to shoot off to the pub to see the game! House full of natturing women !!!!!!

The 15 / 19th Officers needs fixing as rear lug is busted! Which is a right shame and one of which made the belts desireable! Anyone wanting photos of the makers marks give me a nod as some photos not yet posted but will be putting into an Album, all the best Billy

That 9th Lancers one has been extremely well polished!!.

Just a bit!!

Thanks for showing. It's useful to see the direction of the Gaunt markings on genuine period badges.

Here is the 2nd belt for your attention, Alan glad it can be of help! A few are Agonised Aluminium, with early markings

[Alan O]

The 14th/20th badge is the most desirable but it is an interloper as the Eagle design was sealed in 1931 and worn in place of the 14/20th Garter badge for a few years before hand. All of the other badges were worn 1950s/60s when the 14th/20th wore your well polished eagle shown in the other photo.

Rest of the badges, the 5th Dragoons and Queens Own Hussars are roapy very very well used but both have the "Timmings mark"

[Alan O]

The w/m eagle appears to the the KDG pattern eagle rather than the later QDG.

Thanks Alan will compare with others shortly! Cheers billy
