22nd Cheshire Regiment Bandsmans / Drummers Shoulder Belt / Pouch Badge - FN Birmingham - Unvoided Issue

An excellent pouch badge, with two original loops. Post 1881 until amalgamation, found voided and unvoided, this being the latter. A large badge at 6.5cms tall. Maker marked FN Birm (Frank Narborough, Birmingham). The central device bearing the 22 in commutation of its pre 1881 status as the 22nd Regiment of Foot. Some loss of detail to high points of the central device from polishing and service wear other in good condition.

See my item 63921 for the voided issue.
