45th Regiment of Foot (Derbyshire Regiment / Sherwood Forresters) Brass Glengarry Badge Converted into Mess Menu Holder

A genuine example with lugs removed (they were north - south) and expertly attached permanently to a brass menu ring stand which has an upright ring for holding the menu card / place setting name card. The crown shaped back to facilitate holding the paper card in place. Probably graced the tables of the 1st Battalion's Regimental Mess post 1881. Some traces of dried polish. Condition as found. An interesting item.

Please note unable to post this item overseas.
