Great item, great research - is it me, or could the initials in the label actually be JS - almost 'copperplate' style.

That has to be the rarest shako out there, beautiful. Your lucky to have found it.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions but I’m pretty certain Saurin is not our man as this is a surname. Morgan Saurin was listed as Lt Col in 1891 with what I presume to be one of his sons as a Lt.
I owe a big thanks to my friend Dave Warren who alerted me to it in the first place. Last edited by 41st; 06-09-21 at 03:25 PM. |

Thanks to Terry (Home Guard) a plume has now been sourced. I have also identified the officer & I’ll post that info when I have a bit more time, together with some photos taken in better light.
