Any chance of a close up of the East Yorks please Billy? If it’s not sewn in and possible to remove without damaging anything a pic of the back would also greatly be appreciated.

One for me too, please Billy: the reverse of the QRWS (looks like a Woodward all-G/M).

With thanks,

JT

Thanks Billy. I agree, certainly appears to have been subdued from the front.

The Lambourne Lancs Fus and Woodward Queen’s are very nice too.

But broken Luke! But they are what they are, battlefield relics perhaps?

Thanks Billy.

The hole in the fabric seems to reveal the absence of a slider in any case - or part of it, at least.

Default Trophy Belt Canadian badges

Billy, your belt has another three Canadian badges, 165 and the 219 I think are collar badges, the 170 Btn is I think a cap badge, lovely stuff.

The 219th collar is a scarce badge. Nice belt.

Nice early Northamptonshire Regiment badge with what Gaylor describes as the "Regimental" castle.

That's a shame Billy. Still a nice collection though.
