Can anyone identify the two badges in the attached thumbnails please.

both are appx 55mm high.

There is no scroll on the one that looks like Camerons.

Thanks

The one that looks like Camerons is Camerons, pre adoption of the pattern with the scroll.
Scroll added around 1900, according to Gaylor (I think) the 1st Bn didn't adopt that pattern until around 1912.

‘Marshed’ I’m afraid on the Cams GG so post 1970s in reality!

Yes, the scroll with CAMERON was added 25th May 1897, but I have no idea what the second badge is !

The second badge is often toted as a London Scottish badge but very few actually are as in reality many were made as a Scottish emblem and sold in the Highlands to tourists.

Often depends on the fittings.
