Hello Iain,
We do have lots of ABO's in Great Britain, but none of them have clasps, neither does your example, but, it does have a broken suspender, never mind, easily replaced!
Regards Frank

Indeed!
Dare we ask if it has a name impressed upon it's edge?

Burger I. Deetlefs

Not a name I'm familiar with but it seems to be of German origin

An interesting one Iain, he does not appear to be listed on this site?

There are only two Deetlefs on the Roll.

Daniel Hendrik Deetlefs-- Fickburg Commando

and

Joseph Jeremia Deetlefs-- Pretoria/Krokadillrivier Commando

Adrian
