Interesting that these were theatre made, the base metal looks to have a red colour to it the same colour as what the lugs and sliders are made from on sand cast badges from Egypt?
Kind regards Chay
They were mostly made in Egypt however I have been told Tift Taft in the UK also made some. This would make sense as the 13th LH was one of only 2 regiments that served on both the Western Front and in Palestine.
