NSW Naval Contingent & Victorian Naval Contingent
 

hi all
just wanted to share my latest find.
i've got very little pre fed colonial naval items and am super happy with this little lot.

thanks Barry, (nbroadarrowz) for reminding me about John Perrymans book Kit Muster.
The white badge is featured on page 21, Petty Officer, 1st class with three small good conduct stripes, circa 1860.
Crown, anchor and wreath Chief Petty officer. (page 19) 1800's
Crown and anchor, 2nd class Petty officer. (page 19) 1800's

i am especially pleased with the 2nd class Petty officer, which has an Australian (melbourne) makers stamp.

can anyone decipher the other label?

cheers

Is that "for Jeff" written on the back of the card Jeff Cossum ??

hi Rob
assume so. I believe these were promised to Cossum many years ago.
