Exclamation Looking for New South Wales Lancers and Northern River Lancers badges!

Folks,

I'm posting this on behalf of the New South Wales Lancers Museum - their fine collection of NSW Lancers badges has disappeared (most likely stolen by some low life) and they are now looking to buy replacement badges.

If you have any of these spare or for sale, could you drop myself (via a PM) or Ross Baker (rbaker@smartchat.net.au) an email?

Pre Federation NSW Lancers
1st Australian Light Horse (NSW Lancers) - 1900 to 12
5th Australian Light Horse (Northern River Lancers) - 1900 to 12
1st Light Horse (NSW Lancers) - 1930 to 42
1st/21st Light Horse (NSW Lancers) - 1930 to 42
15th Light Horse (Northern River Lancers) - 1930 to 42
1st Light Horse (NSW Lancers) - 1948 to 60
15th Light Horse (Northern River Lancers) - 1953 to 60

or any other NSW Lancers badges not mentioned.

Mick

I am very sorry to hear about their loss Mick. Have you put up something about this theft on the Light Horse Forum?

Were there any distinguishing features in regards to these badges? Broken lugs, spots of corrosion, any museum marks created using an ultraviolet pen?

I've put the word out on various forums.

Sadly, having seen them myself before they went missing, I can say that there was no marking on them to say they came from that collection.
