andalucia Posted 5 February , 2008 Posted 5 February , 2008 Hi All A friend of mine has a WW1 box, they no nothing about it? It has Lance Corpal j.o.t Williams, Royal engineers written on it. Would anyone have any info on the box? what was it for etc? Many Thanks Anthony
auchonvillerssomme Posted 5 February , 2008 Posted 5 February , 2008 cypher is George 6th so not WW1. Mick
daggers Posted 5 February , 2008 Posted 5 February , 2008 Looks like G VI R in the centre, so not WW1 but after 1937? What size is it? That might help to define what it was for. Daggers
Rob B Posted 5 February , 2008 Posted 5 February , 2008 As Royal Engineers were tradesmen this could be a piece he made himself as part of his trade tests. My Grandfather a RE in India made a Cigarette box with an engraved cap badge on it. Rob
andalucia Posted 6 February , 2008 Author Posted 6 February , 2008 I cant believe i missed the George V1 the box is made of wood it's about 8ins in length and 7ins across the lid slides off it. Lance Corpal j.o.t Williams served in both world wars. cheers for all the help Anthony
