Default 20th Middlesex (Artists) Volunteers etc

Hi all,

Been offered the chance to buy one or more of these so opinions on authenticity would be greatly appreciated. They look OK to me.
Thanks

If those are the prices then they’re bargain basement and very desirable. The London Rifle Brigade has suffered an updated crown though but very nicely done. I can’t say I’ve seen a Welsh Cyclists helmet plate before.

Edit: The Artists appears repaired at the top.

Not my thing of course but I would say the Welsh Cyclists is the star of the show, never seen another.

The Kings Royal Rifle Corps isnt a helmet plate, but its not a crossbelt badge either. Looks as if its been repaired ( north arm at the top) or the pagri slide has been removed and replaced with lugs. Do you know the badges dimensions ?

No, unfortunately I don't know the dimensions. I'll ask.

Greetings.
Aside from the KRRC item, which I have no knowledge of, I would bite the sellers arms off at the shoulder for these.

Remove what appears to be a layer of lacquer or similar on The Tower Hamlets badge and you've got a fab badge.

Regards.

Brian
