Shopping Spree
Been busy doing some shopping and this is what I found
Unfortunately no bargains but some scarce and unusual items! Helmet also comes with provenance - ex-RMA veteran. |

Including was this contemporary custom-made belt plate, believed to be Victorian as suggested by the cypher. The lower part bears a shield with the Maltese emblem, however would appreciate any further thoughts and suggestions.

I would suggest based on construction that this may be a more modern item created for a re-enactment group and not a Victorian period item. I like the helmet though... nice camo and flash. Could this have been worn by an AA gunner? |

As for the helmet, this was worn by the RA as the flash suggests, but also adopted by the RMA. This actually came from a Maltese veteran gunner which served in WWII with the RMA. Regards. |
