Good Morning Frank.....

Fantastic Badge.....

I am sure that there are many variants due to them being made locally and no official party in charge unlike British badges.....

I have 3 different versions of the Lord Strathcona badges all hand made.....

Still a beautiful badge.....

Hello again Mike,
Thanks, but I do prefer yours, much rarer!
I do have a little ( and they are very small!) Strathcona's Horse I'll try and find it.

I think what we should keep in mind is that these badges were actually there in the Boer War, unlike the medals, if only they could talk!
What stories they might tell!

Anyway, love your Damants Horse, a really lovelly example,
Thanks again for posting on here,
Kind regards
Frank

Gentlemen,
Just thought I'd add this before I put the book away!
Wish I had this badge!
Frank
