Original Pre-WWI British King's Royal Rifle Regiment Tunic and Fur Busby

Item Description

Original Items: One set only. Here is an original dark green tunic correctly marked on the interior with a paper label as King's Royal Rifle Regiment and dated October 1913. The dark green Melton Cloth Tunic with Red neck facings is in excellent condition and shows NO Moth damage whatsoever. It's full lining is still present and each should bears the Regimental cypher of "KRR" in brass. The buttons, all of which are present, are black Bakelite showing King's Crown over a Hunting Horn.

The Tunic comes complete with K.R.R. sealskin Busby displaying its plaited cord, roped lozenge and maroon horse hair hackle together with leather chin strap. There is very slight moth damage to the seal fur, and the fabric on the cord has faded, making it look golden instead of the correct black color. The Busby has War Department stamp dated 1901, as well as a size marking of 7 3/8. There is a manufacturer stamp that is unfortunately illegible.

A desirable and rare O.R.'S Kings Royal Rifle Regiment just Pre-WW1 Tunic and Helmet, ready to display.
