Hen's teeth and rocking horse dropping spring to mind with Right Facing Collars. The reason I have two, both left facing, is because they are different material. I'm still not sure of the actual dates they would have been worn, some time between 1896 and 1907. I've not seen any documentary evidence, when inward facing cannons were introduced. Maybe when the collars ceased to have a scroll? I have a similar problem with the cap badges. I know that the smaller size came into existence about 1907 but when the slider changed in length has me confused. Some have said it was with the introduction of the Brodrick (short slider) and the introduction of peak cap. (long slider)
