Its some Indian princely state for sure but can't recall which...can do a bit of digging in my books in the morning and find out ..it's now 2.30 am in India : ) but would you care to sell the shoulder title ? Please let me know.

I think it is Junagadh, but will check and confirm.

Very nice and very scarce ( although that doesn't necessarily translate into valuable ! ) - Definitely from a Princely State - the crest on the buttons is from Junagadh - although there is nothing similar in the section on Junagadh in the definitive work on the insignia of the Princely States - "The Maharajas' Paltans" - this in itself is not unusual as whilst the book may be the "definitive work" it's by no means fully comprehensive. Thanks for sharing. Tim

From the link I posted it appears that the emblem with the lion (as on the buttons) was "adopted" after WW1 .
