Default my latest pick up. 6th royal melbourne rgt

Hi all
My latest pick up. 6th Royal Melbourne Rgt collection of items. Found at an antiques fair. Wasn’t cheap but nice lot. Looks like this chap was an OR then became an officer.
Looks like an ORs 1930-42 hat badge, and an ORs 1948-53 hat badge.
2 officers cap badges (slightly different in design) 1930-42 period with an officer’s collar and an officer’s hat badge 1948-53 period.
along with a blazer badge and screen printed podium banner? item
Enjoy

Thanks mate
Was just looking at the sellers items and spotted an enamel badge then another and to my surprise he pulled this box out with the items.
The bad part was it was the 4 stall I looked at and had no cash left for the rest of the day. Just as well nothing else turned up.
