Title 199th Irish Rangers of Canada cap badge
Nationality Canadian
Period c 1916
Sold

This unit was also known as the Duchess of Connaught's Own Irish Rangers. Raised in 1916 and recruited in Montreal and district, in 1917 the 199th was absorbed into the 23rd Reserve Battalion.

Its condition is excellent. It would originally have been a blackened badge, but now the highlights have been polished.

I have in the last six months inherited my late father Alan Swain's police memorabilia collection along with much paperwork receipts etc. I would like to pass on to you my thanks for such good dealership with my father going back to the late 80s and well into the 1990s.
