Pals.

An old pal phoned me last night, his mate was clearing out his Dads Stuff. His (I think) Dad's Dad worked years ago for a Taylors who did medal ribbons. I think for the Garrison at Chester.

I know this is off period but I thought worth a post. They look brand new but have not seen the light of day for decades.

On an old list as follows.

India general Medal 1854-1895

Ashante War Medal/ East west Africa Medal 1877-1879

Afghanistan Medal1878-1880

Egypt Medal 1882-1889

British South Africa Company's Medal 1890-1897

India General Service Medal 1895-1902

Ashanti Star 1895- 1896

Queens Sudan Medal 1896- 1897

Khedive's Sudan 1896-1908

King's South African Medal 190*- 1902

Regards

Many thanks.

It's the shortest one of the bunch.

I had looked on google. Pleased to see the collection how fantastic if medals had been on the ribbons.

I'll try and get better pictures.

If any one needs or would like pics let me know and i'll e mail. They are all stapled together. I thought the clock method of displaying them
