Guys,
Just a couple of photo's I've been meaning to add to this great thread.
First ones are of two "Onward" collars.
The first we have already covered as a cap badge - but this one is solid backed bronze - officers collar?
The second has the stylised laurel leaves in its fern-leaf boarder
The last two are just some photo's of other Fern badges
Top: Circa 1895 (Oldham) collars (I see the new book states these are to the Wakatu (Nelson?) Mounted Rifles - not a matching pair.... one day.. - would be nice to see a photo of these being worn if anyone has one
Middle: 1911 Coronation (George V) - is this a cap/collar or collar?
Bottom: 1st North Canterbury Mounted Rifles Collar - looks to be re-lugged.... but the only one I have come across in a while....
Best Regards
James..
