Boer War Peace
Thought this lapel badge/brooch might be of interest. I believe celebrates the end of the second Boer War.

Hello Peter.....
I have a few but I am afraid no pictures...... These items were sold as a commercial ventur and do not really have a military connection..... There is a book called "Boer War Memorabilia, The Collectors Guide by Pieter Oosthuizen" which has a whole chapter on the subject..... Mike I will attach a photo of one that was sold in Toronto to Welcome Home the Canadian troops...... It is a copper copy of one issued to the returning troops I have attached a photo of that one as well........
