Default Some collars I bought
I have always wanted a pair of Northern Cyclists collars; don’t ask me why because I don’t know! I finally purchased some with this little lot. The 12th Londons is exquisite. The prince of Wales feather?

The 12th London isn’t a collar.

Good find on both accounts Matti.

If you would like to move on the Inns of Court collars I would be interested.

Regards

Chris

If you want them mate, you are more than welcome.
Any ideas of the Prince of Wales plumes?
The 6th DG is lovely too.

I hope that you do not mind but I have trimmed your photograph to make it easier to see.

The PoW plumes could be 2GR or Welsh Brigade

The Warwickshire Yeomanry badges might not be collars either. The caps were basically the same size as the collars. Would need to see them closer and with the reverses shown.

Default Reverse
Here are the reverses, I await your thoughts.
Loving the shared knowledge and finding I have more than I bargained for.
Thank you guys.

Well, they look like collars with those lugs, but these could also have been pressed into service on the cap as well since they are facing the correct way.
