Hi Gents, Jerry my two Jerry.... hope you like tony Edit amongst these....

Received safe and sound thanks again Tony tony

Please Sir..., Thank you as always Bayern tony

Hi Gents not my usual thing but think this is nice find..... On their way to me still but for now these photos from the advert Hope you like tony

Hi jf42 thanks for your replies all along... I don't know why having this troubles me so much. But it does. Historically prob the most significant thing I have. I've offered this to a Gent who I think, based on his posts, should have it. A gift in return for its safekeeping.... no answer yet- even to me it sounds like a scam so I understand that.... I hope he wants it. tony

Hi Gents, David, Simon i like these! id certainly give them a tin of their own and keep them together just in case.... just noticed this on the badge.... which is a good start... and the tags look good to me. As at least they match later issued ones I have - maybe other Gents know if this design matches those issued up to 1916? That he was buried at home supports the case that his effects could have made it home to a relative... I agree the glue doesn't help the chances of authenticity but a modern fraudster would have known that and not used it so I would suggest, and I personally would 'choose' to beleive, that the wings were bought in good faith by the 'keeper' of the other two items at a later date, rather than belonging to Morrell himself. I agree with Simon- they very unlikely his.... but part of the story that's lost in time! I like...., tony

Hi Gents I've just been googling and sadly saw this.... the description says "old reproduction - possibly stage prop..." i still like it but... To me, if this is another one it would seem odd - unless you have bought one of a pair from the same person....? hope this helps tony

Hi David i like it what size is it? tony

Brilliant! Bayern do you get frustrated with us?? I can't help laughing. You knew what it was all the time! Nice one both, pleasure tony

Thats that then.... tony

Hi Tony thanks for your reply Regrettably i have never researched it... or the majority of my others. I'm behind the times a bit when it comes to the web Are Hewitt's records available to all or pay per view?? ((About 2 years ago I got given an old I phone. Until then i had been off line for about ten years, I didn't know what I was missing! a lot has changed since XP on my Pc)) I found the same Tony. Both medals and badges - I still referred to books that said certain things proved originality - no longer. I had no idea how things had changed. Can't trust much nowadays.... sadly. cheers tony

Hi Gents ungarischer.... tony

Hi Gents My only one of these... this is missing it's bar and I think even the suspenders is wrong but it's mine.... I bought this a while back described as 2 bar but it's only one bar. MIC said, I think , it's c1919? I could google relevant dates for appropriate bars but I'd rather wing it.... and say 18-23 ish... 3434 Sepoy Badar Din 1/55/RFLS tony

Just realised that's old news ! tony

Hi Gents Joel i not sure which way my edited pic will show. I've rotated yours 90' and side on it is really looks like an L and E intertwined. tony excuse my poor attempt

Hi Gents i get sentimental sometimes.... moment of truth. As ive said I want to find this a good home. ive just read this thread through and I can see my struggle! to do what I should. It's wrong that I'm currently keeping this fella like this.... amongst some army surplus.!. -----/---////------- Bugler Jacobs is in danger of being lost in time. But today I received an e mail to which I have So - I have been mailing/'fishing' for any interest at the all the IWM and the museums you Gents have suggested... to no avail. Until today when I have got an answer.... So Gents Tomorrow, I will think, by making this offer i am foolish..,, I hope by then you Gents might reassure me!! tony

Hi Jerry an Gents im staggered! Jerry, Are these your focus, your No.1 thing or ? im a bit of a magpie so my mind boggles. Do you mind me asking do you have a lot of other badges?? Ive 'only' got two fusiliers badges. The one is a dug up . The other, a bi-metal is well rubbed. I'll find them and post. til then Jerry..... hope you like.... tony

Nice! I love getting it wrong! Luckily! my staybrite must be Welsh Brigade..... cheers Jerry tony

Iver, can't thank you enough for the picture.... Appreciated both.... --------/- Hi Gents obviously I hope it's old and maybe military or even Royal! its the crest I thought made it worth a punt... I'll post pics once I've got it.... tony
