WWII 1939 Home Front Police Helmet
An untouched early WW2 police steel helmet with its original factory applied blue paintwork and white frontal 'POLICE' stencil.
The underside of the rim bears a lightly stamped makers mark which I believe to be BMB (Briggs Motor Bodies) and an almost indiscernible 1939 date, the inside of the crown is also untouched with age old dust, dirt, light blistering present.
The undisturb... read more
Victorian 1896 Other Rank's Pill Box Cap
A scarce late Victorian other rank's pill box cap bearing a good, bold,War Department issue stamp and 1896 date, the cap remains in good firm order but the black coloured body has suffered from much insect tracking & nips especially to the crown area along with having one minor hole.
The khaki brown herringbone twill banding along with its matching crown button are still firmly attached ... read more
Shed-Found WW1 German S98/05 Saw-Back (Butcher) Bayonet (A/F)
An appealing Imperial German S98/05 Pioneer's saw-back Mauser bayonet that had been tucked away in an outbuilding for decades, fortunately it still remains in rather good condition, now missing its walnut grips and release button (piece of rubber/leather visible inside hole) but with a little effort this bayonet could be transformed and make a nice addition to anyone's collection or could be si... read more

Superb 1916 British Officer's Trench Whistle With Dated Strap
An exceptional and possibly an un-issued 1916 dated British officer's trench whistle made by J.Hudson & Co of Birmingham, what sets this whistle apart from most others is the superb condition leather hanging strap bearing a minute War Department broad arrow mark, a letter 'M' and a 15 (1915) year date.
I have acquired many whistles over the years but very few with War Department issue ma... read more
Cold War RAF Flying Officer's SD Tunic & Caps (MID)
A most appealing Cold-War era RAF uniform group that belonged to Flying Officer R.S.Davis, this un-researched officer was mentioned in despatches as the tunic bears a correctly mounted pre-1994 bronze oak leak (silver coloured post 94) making this group a nice little research project and which may enhance it service history greatly.
The medium size service dress tunic is in very clean co... read more
