Default Northumberland Fusiliers Archive.

Good morning.

And for anyone interested in The Fifth Fusiliers, try this:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Uniform-Re...-/111541928188

It is almost certainly the archive of Norman Farrier, who decades ago was the Curator of the Regimental Museum when it was at Fenham Barracks. It was then acquired by Lee Bamburgh, and when he died about ten years ago it was dispersed from his Estate: looks like it has resurfaced.

One for Mr Stewart perhaps?

Nowt to do with me!

Enjoy.

S.T.

Cool Norman Farrier

I used to correspond with Norman Farrier in the sixties and bought lots of badges from him, very helpful and always had good badges for sale.

He once reprimanded me when I said I was going to collect German badges as there were lots of copies . . !

Actually, I think it was put together by the late Philip Hoyer.

I think you're correct as I have quite a bit of Normans archive in my own collection.
