2 WW1 CAP TALLIES
Although not a naval collector, I recently obtained these two cap tallies which had formed part of a collection of ephemera/insignia belonging to a WW1 sailor. Both ships had interesting histories. Kind regards, Malcolm.

Malcolm,
Two very interesting tallies. I rather imagine that your WW1 sailor had a few stories to tell.If they are ever looking for a new home then please let me know! Regards fred |

Very jealous of HMS Bulwark.
I have recently purchased a more modern one on ebay. I am making up a number of glazed display boxes relating to family service in WW1 and WW2. I had a very distant relative killed in the Bulwark explosion off Sheerness in November 1914. I used to see his name carved in the lych gate of the parish church when I was staying with my grandparents in the country in the school holidays. http://www.sheppey.free-online.co.uk/history/wrecks/
