I will take some photographs of a few of mine tomorrow in daylight. Meanwhile here is a photographs of a display cabinet that I had about 15 years ago. I have moved house since then but still have the cabinet and many more tankards.

Most of the pewter tankards were given as shooting prizes to various Rifle Volunteer battalions.
