Question

Their main business was Military Tailoring and Outfitting but they also supplied other items bearing their name including belt buckles and swords !

An article in Illustrated London (1893) states that :

"Metal badges , ornaments , and buttons of every description made to order"

It is not clear whether they actually made them or they were 'sub contracted' to other manufacturers and produced with their own marks on them ?
