WW1 - 18th (Queen Mary's own) Hussars Set of Cap Collar and Shoulder Title Badges

All came together, the cap and collars with equal polishing and colour, a much loved set clearly from the same soldier together with his brass shoulder titles. Original fittings with cotter pins, Will not split. Would look great with some WW1 medals to a regular soldier of 18th Hussars.
