Wigan Local Militia
Hi Gents,
It's been somewhat slow on the old button front for me of late, so thought I would share this nice addition of a scarce Wigan Local Militia button (R&M 193). Cheers, Roy

A little cracker Roy. Far superior to the modern day crap.

It would appear to be Wigan Regiment Local Militia from what I can quickly find out, so that would account for the "R" i guess?
