A SILVER SINGLE CUFFLINK, TO THE RHODESIAN LIGHT INFANTRY.
While we should put this Single Silver Cufflink into the "Miscellaneous" Department we are sure that collectors will be more interested in it as being ALMOST a Mess Dress Collar to this Fine Regiment. The maker is T & S, as is stamped with the Hallmarking to the rear of the badge. The Hallmarking is for Birmingham, An Anchor, with an 'O' for the year.
"Quartermaster's Comment":- Do note that this item was made especially as a Cuff-Link.....being just that bit smaller. Pitty we have only the one. Nevertheless a very nice momento to this Fine Regiment. Sorry, I do not have my 'Hallmark' Book to hand to check out the date. It is almost certainly from the late 1950's onwards.
