Default Backmark '????? Standard'..?

Hi Gents,

I seem to recall coming across this backmark before but can't remember the details. Can someone help me out?

The only word that I can clearly decipher is 'standard'.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Roy

Thanks Gents,

Gosh your eyes are better than mine..

We are certainly on the right track, I'm sure.

I should have mentioned and just in case it makes any difference; the button is Local Militia so dates from 1808-1816.

Cheers,

Roy
