Edwardian south wales borderers officers fs cap
a recent addition;
south wales borderers officers field service cap, dating to c.1899-1912, blue cloth with white crown piping (army regs 1900 say at this date they were blue cloth with regimental distinctions), buttons by Jennens & co London (no p of w feathers which I think makes them pre 1912), cap made by Silberston London 2 Regents Place Regents street (they were at 21 regents place c.1899 and became and silberston & son c1930). Badge is silver plated, with early type lettering with raised edge, on two silver plated lugs. also shown it with an or's wwii period cap

Nice to see a FSC of that age, a new acquisition?
I like the OR's cap too. |
