Bennett dates this pattern to c1880, just before the 29th Foot became the 1st battalion of The Worcestershire Regiment in the Cardwell reforms of 1881 (glengarry badges then ceased to carry the regimental number). All of this suggests this was a short-lived badge.

Churchill (reference 911) shows a smaller version of this badge and says it was worn on both the collar and FS cap.

HQ at Grantham. Note: This plate is unusual in that it shows a 'strap' to the centre rather than the standard circlet. Perhaps this is a conversion from an earlier rifle volunteer helmet plate?

33rd Foot Collar Badge? An intriguing, brass badge with two lug fastenings (north and south). Churchill 915. Note: Churchill states this badge is commonly thought to have been worn by the 33rd Foot, and notes it is identical to the centre of the post-1881 helmet plate centre for The Duke of Wellington\'s Regiment (West Riding). However, he states \"there is no evidence that it was worn on the collar pre or post 1881\" and speculates a more likely attribution is the 5th (Wellington Rifles) New Zealand. Churchill adds: \"Despite seeing a torn out section of a sample/pattern card annotated \'West Riding Regt, 1896, facing to the left\', there is no evidence of such a pattern in the Army Clothing Department pattern room journals.\" He also notes a similar badge, sealed 6th August 1920, was for side hat ornament.

Linker & Dine state: \"The crown has been silver-soldered to the monogram. This may be as the badge was manufactured or it may be a subsequent repair. \"It is believed that this badge was made for the regiment in Germany shortly after its arrival from Malaya 1948-51 when the previous stock was near exhaustion.\"

HQ at Perth. As KK2694. Note: This badge was also worn by The Trinity College, Glenalmond, Officer Training Corps, although the quality of the striking and the dark, toned lugs suggests this may be an earlier (Victorian) example.

Some collectors consider this heavy badge to be a spurious item, never issued or worn (despite photos showing it in wear).
52nd Foot Pre-1881 Collar Badge? A scarce, brass, collar badge identified to me as The 52nd Foot (later 2nd battalion of the Ox & Bucks LI) with two lug fastenings (north and south, probably both replacements). NOTE: Colin Churchill's book (p190) states this regiment did not wear collar badges prior to 1881 so it may well have been worn by another unidentified unit instead.

Cameronians Piper\'s Glengarry Badge A white metal glengarry badge for a piper of The Cameronians (Scottish Rifles) with a pin fastening (north-south). Gaylor plate 26. Note: This is the smaller pattern at approximately 65mm wide x 45mm tall, which Gaylor states was worn by the 1st battalion circa 1860-1921. The fastening looks like a modification from the usual long slider fastening. I would say this was done at the time of wear although it could be a later adjustment.
Cameronians Piper\'s Glengarry Badge A white metal glengarry badge for a piper of The Cameronians (Scottish Rifles) with a single lug fastening (north) and a short slider fastening. Gaylor plate 26. Note: This is the smaller pattern at approximately 65mm wide x 45mm tall, which Gaylor states was worn by the 1st battalion circa 1860-1921. These badges usually have a long slider fastening. I have never seen this combination before on one of these badges. This is likely a modification but it is hard to say whether this was done at the time of wear or later.

The reverse bears a (curiously-shaped) plaque for retailer Wm Anderson & Sons, Military Outfitters, Edinburgh. Bloomer, book 1 page 35, shows a version of this badge and describes it as an officer\'s (hallmarked silver) glengarry badge. Note: Curiously, the bugle faces the opposite way to usual. Colin Churchill, in his book on the History of the British Army Infantry Collar Badge, describes this as an officer\'s puggaree badge (reference 716), stating it is much larger and of a different format to the officer\'s service dress collar badge. This badge does seem to be too large to have been worn as a collar?

Churchill 238. Note: One of these collars is marked for manufacturer J.R. Gaunt London while the other is marked for J&Co (Jennens). Churchill dates these collars to post-1926. I understand Jennens was acquired by Gaunts in 1925 so the J&Co mark is interesting on a post-1926 badge.

It describes a black velvet centre, although I am informed this plate\'s red centre was a variation made of Moroccan leather. I understand the difference in backings date back to the Canadian and Indian traditions of the regiment.

The reverse is marked for Hobson & Sons, Lexington St, London. As KK224. Note: This looks to be a conversion from a Victorian plate - often carried out around 1902, as officer\'s were required to buy their own helmet plates. The combination of the converted crown and blank scroll sphinx is intriguing - the territorial battalions came into force in 1908 and were not entitled to use the Egypt battle honour. Perhaps this was an earlier militia officer\'s helmet plate or perhaps the centre is also a later addition?
Lincs Regt OSD Cap Badge A cast, officer\'s service dress, bronzed cap badge for The Lincolnshire Regiment with two blade fastenings (east and west). As KK1957.
Lincs RV Officer\'s Shako Plate A rare, silvered, shako plate for an officer of The 1st Lincolnshire Rifle Volunteers with two lug fastenings (east and west). Note: I believe this pattern was also used by other rifle volunteer units.

As Litchfield 39. Note: There is limited gilt remaining on the front of the plate (price adjusted, accordingly) although the remains of gilding are clear on the back. The added wheel is also typical of an officer\'s plate. Norman Litchfield\'s book on The Militia Artillery 1852-1909 shows a similar helmet plate for The Scottish Division (Militia) dated to 1882-89. The book states the blue cloth helmet plate was authorised for wear by artillery officers after 1880. I believe this was a short-lived helmet plate worn just prior to the militia artillery reorganisation of 1882 (when the South East of Scotland Artillery became part of the Scottish Division).

Skins Collar Badges A pair of bi-metal collar badges for The Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers, each with two lug fastenings (north and south - pinched closed) and \'sweathole\' construction. Churchill 747. Note: These are more likely somewhat faded silver and gilt collar badges for an officer/non-commissioned officer. The flags both face the same way, although I think these are a matched pair. Churchill\'s book does not specifically state whether the flags on these collars face the same way or are supposed to face each other

SLI (Vols) FS Cap Badge A scarce, white metal, field-service cap badge for a volunteer battalion of The Somerset Light Infantry with two lug fastenings (east and west). As Churchill 411. Note: Churchill states: "In the S.A.H.R. Journal Volume XXII, No 89, is an article by E.J. Martin Esq, 'The Universal Helmet Plate 1878-1914', it states that the helmet plate centre (Fig. 411), 'was formerly worn as a collar badge'". Churchill adds: "No documentary or photographic evidence has been located that confirms this statement." That said, in the late Victorian period it was common for British infantry regiments to wear the badge used as the centre of the helmet plate as an early cap badge (in brass) and for the volunteers to mirror this badge in white metal.

SLI Officer\'s Cap Badge A nice, silver-plated, cap badge for an officer of The Somerset Light Infantry with two lug fastenings (east and west). As KK1981.

SLI Officer\'s Collar Badges A scarce pair of silver collar badges for an officer of The Somerset Light Infantry, each with a single lug fastening. Churchill 429? Note: If I understand correctly, Churchill suggests these were worn by officer of the 1st battalion TA on Nos. 1 and 3 dress, sealed 9th October 1956.
SLI Officer\'s Helmet Plate A nice. post-1902, silver and gilt helmet plate for an officer of The Somersetshire Light Infantry with three lug fastenings (north, east and west). As KK228. Note: Kipling & King states the title scroll changed to read Somerset Light Infantry in 1912.
