The only item I am happy about is the part title IRISH/KINGS, I am sure I saw a T/8 for sale recently.If you could buy the 2 parts and get them profesionally joined together you might get one reasonable item.

I have a title T/8/IRISH LIVERPOOL in b/b and although there is a possiblity it was made up from Liverpool Irish and Liverpool Scottish titles, if it was, it is a very good job and was done many many years ago.

The post 1939 Liverpool Irish officers caubeen badge has been reproded almost as much as the 8th Scottish V.B. Cross Belt plate. It should be in silver or silver plate,with lugs, and any other ones , even with named sliders are at the very least suspicious in my opinion.
A hall marked silver example was sold by Bosleys in 1999 for £330 plus commision (h.m 1940)

I dont think any comment on the cast Liverpool Irish badge in one of the E bay shops is necessary
P.B.
