ok, not heard of them, the cap is military from c.1901-1910, waiting for it to arrive, sadly the pics of the button are pretty poor, which might have helped

2nd VB Devonshire Regiment by the shape of the scrolls, I'm not sure what colour their fsc was though.

Speaking of 2nd V.B. Devonshire Reg. Did you see this one at the C&T (I think) before last? A new one to me and not in KK.

A very nice early cap, rare to see with the chin strap. I am sure the buttons will tell all once they can be seen clearly. I think it likely to be an officer's cap with those silver buttons and the badge looks like it might be silver as well.

A fascinating badge, it was Barnebys auction 3rd of September.
No idea what it went for in the end, it interested me as it's a Plymouth Volunteer Bn, I have the majority of POW feathers collar badges for the Bn, and I've only ever seen a smaller black POW cap badge with simply 2nd VB on the scroll, and that was years ago.
The scroll doesn't seem to have aged or match the the feathers, which is odd.
Certainly an interesting badge.
Sorry to have highjacked this thread a little!
The buttons do match the 15th London's, as Simon and Rob say, just to get thread on track again.
Nice cap!
