So this soldier has two headstones, this one and the one in the CWGC British Military Cemetery in ...  read more

A clever adaption of the early two piece shoulder title with the small RF letters below now attached to the grenade which would have been worn above separately, lugs now removed and the whole attached to a functional c clasp pin fitting. Some staining to the gilding metal finish as a result of the conversion but nicely done.

Not to be confused with the smaller shoulder title (see final photo for comparison - the latter for sale elsewhere). Whilst in the style of many theatre made slouch hat badges of the Boer War, on reflection this badge has more of an Indian made feel to it and was possibly worn by...  read more
