Default Very unofficial 5th Kings Liverpool Collars

All,

I am sure that this picture will be of interest to the Kings enthusiasts.

Note the black buttons.

Very nice, there are other photograophs like this, some with slightly cut down STs. The cap badge indicates that it postdates 1921.

Seems to have been quite common in this battalion,does any one have photos of titles being worn as collars in other battalions ?

P.B.

Julian,

I know that it is not black but it does appear to me by the style of horse that it is the pre 1920 The Kings version rather than the post war KINGS one.

I have a few pics of Herts men wearing the ST on the collars, High Wood has a photo of a Herts man wearing them in his ST album too, all good stuff,
