Title Royal Horse Guards OR's helmet plume, nylon
Nationality British
Period c 1960
Price £40.00

This fits the standard troopers helmet. This regiment, one of the oldest in the Household Cavalry, has guarded the monarchs of Britain ever since Charles II returned in 1660. They still guard the monarch on state occasions, along with the Life Guards, who wear the same helmet, but with a white plume.

It is in ex-stores condition, but missing the rosette to cover the top fitting, and missing the locking nut on the base.

Just letting you know that the whistle arrived here this morning safe and sound. Your excellent packaging was still totally intact and it took me all of five minutes to break into it to see my purchase. I am very pleased, it is a great whistle.
