Default Maker?

Hello
Is there a maker mark on the reverse of the 160th collars? I have in my 160th collection a flat backed, Tiptaft marked, non-voided OR collar. Also, I am looking for a Hemsley marked officer cap badge, anyone have one they wish to part with?
Moe

Hello,

No makers mark on either!

Wouldn't have an extra 160th or 161st shoulder title hanging around?

Pm me if interested!

Cheers
Rob

Default Shoulder title

Hi Rob
Is that shoulder title you are looking for metal or cloth? To my knowledge the 160th did not have a metal one. A cloth title was ordered and worn, then the powers that be told them to take it down shortly before the Battalion was broken up in Feb. of 1918. I have been looking for a cloth title for a number of years but no luck so far.
Glad you managed to find the 160 collars.
Cheers
Moe

"I have in my 160th collection a flat backed, Tiptaft marked, non-voided OR collar." would you be willing to photo/scan the Col (or your entire 160th collection) and send it to me (un-compressed - full size image) for use in the CEF Badge book?
PLEASE
Thanks
Larry/Clive/Bill and Ian

Default Will try

Hello
Although I am illiterate when it comes to computers, I will try to send photos of what I have. You will have to be patient as I will need to find someone with more computer knowledge than I have to give me a hand.
Cheers
Moe
