Top left is a WW2 British made split feather type wing. Top right appears to be a replica from Pegasus Militaria, but it hard to tell from a small picture of the front alone.

Second and third one down on the left column also appear to be replicas to me but I take David's word for it.

David,

Have to disagree on some of your ID's.

I believe the middle left in Post Independence India, while the middle right might be Australian (however, I cannot find a match in ANZAC Elite.

I also believe the bottom left is Indian (nothing like it matches out of ANZAC Elite)

My opinion, for what it's worth. Happy to be steered right by more knowledgeable collectors.

Ian B
