A 19th century Sudanese, Mahdist War era war axe. Comprising of a leather covered wooden shaft, with low grade silver mounts, and a bronze axe head. Together with a Sudanese short spear from the same era. The spear has the traditional leaf shaped point, with raised central ridge. Twisted wire bindings to the mid and end sections, and and a thicker flattened length of steel wrapped around the section holding the blade to the shaft. Provenance: both items were acquired by Captain Robert Charles Couldrey of the Royal Field Artillery, who was seconded to the Egyptian army at the end on WW1, and went on to serve as the Controller General of the Sudan War Supply Board in the early 1920’s. Axe length: 75.5cm, spear length 83.6cm. Condition: some wear to each. The axe has parts of the leather covering split and coming away from the wooden shaft. The bronze axe head has an aged brown / green patina, but otherwise appears to be undamaged. The silver mounts have blackened with tarnish and are a little dented from use. The spear has a fine patina, both to the head and wooden shaft. The end section is a little rough, which may suggest that an additional section once present has broken away in the past.

A WW1 1915 Star trio, awarded to T/35840 Driver J.Tate of the Army Service Corps, plus other items. To include: the 1915 Star, British War Medal, Victory Medal, a WW2 era Hudson A.R.P whistle, and a variety of British and French coins, some silver and half silver. Notes: Dvr Joseph Tate first entered the conflict in France on September 9th 1915, and was discharged on June 18th 1919. His full medal entitlement is confirmed as being the trio. Condition: generally good to the medals. Normal age related toning, and some light wear from polishing. Each medal is complete with its original silk ribbon, and these are a little soiled / dusty with age. The coins range in date from the 18th century, through to modern commemorative crowns, and vary in condition, with many of the older coins being in very worn condition. The A.R.P whistle has a dent to one side, and a little loss of nickel plating to the surface.
A selection of WW2 German equipment. To include: a good pair of late WW2 era. German army M37 pattern ankle gaiters, manufactured in moss green canvas, with black grain leather reinforcements, and tan leather straps. Both gaiters are ink stamped ‘RKStW’ with one also having a clear number 44 for 1944. White stitching to the hemmed areas. Plus, a WW2 era pair of M44 trouser braces, marked ‘ggb44’, and a pair of black leather Zeltbahn straps, one marked bdr44 and the other marked gmo42. The latter is also unit marked ‘2FJR’ (2.Fallschirmjäger?). Both straps retain their metal buckles and leather retaining loops. And a old reproduction of a German ‘Stielhandgranate’ with turned wooden handle, and screw off end cap. The cylindrical head is embossed stamped ‘RR564 1939’, and paint / ink stamp featuring the eagle and swastika, and ‘WaA 564’. Curiously, the grenade is fitted with what appears to be a genuine period splinter sleeve. Approximately 35.5cm in length. Condition: good. Some normal light service and age related wear, but no apparent damage or repairs. The grenade shows some patination to the wooden shaft, and some minor paint chipping to the metal parts.
A good WW1 era Volunteer Training Corps armband for Basingstoke. Of usual form and construction, with a red wool body, and the separately applied black felt letters of ‘GR’ for George Rex. With narrow tab and nickel buckle fitting to the reverse side. Handwritten detail to the linen lining, stating that it is for ‘Basingstoke Volunteer Training Corps’, with it also having its former owner name ‘L.C. Whetham’ of the ‘No 1 Section Comm’. Notes: published records of its former owner are sparse, but there is a pension record for a Captain L.C.Whetham of the IA TC (Indian Army Training Corps), with his address being listed as Daneshill Cottage, Basingstoke, Hampshire. The medal rolls also confirm that a 2.Lieut L.C.Whetham was entitled to the British War Medal, and the Victory Medal, with the medals being issued by the Indian Office. Lewis Charles Whetham was born in circa 1877 and died in 1963. Approximately 17cm c 13cm. Condition: generally very good. Some light soiling to the inside from wear, and a little wear to the nap of the cloth from use. Tiny moth nip to the right of the letter R. Some light surface corrosion to the buckle.
A collection of WW1 and WW2 British campaign medals. To include: a trio of WW1 medals, all named to different men. The 1915 Star is named to 1771 Pte A.Tunstill of the 1/5th East Lancashire Regiment, who first entered the conflict on May 10th 1915, and landing at Gallipoli in 1915. The British War Medal is named to 15436 Pte Edward Jack of the Cameron Highlanders, and later the 105th Labour Company. Pte Jack first entered the conflict in France on July 8th 1915 and was discharged on May 17th 1918 (he is additionally entitled to the Silver War Badge). The Victory Medal is named to 1064 Pte Orlando Berry of the 2nd Manchester Regiment. Pte Berry first enlisted for service on September 22nd 1908, but did not enter the conflict until 1915 (thus earning him the 1915 Star). He was discharged on July 18th 1918, and is entitled to the Silver War Badge. Also included is a quantity of WW2 Stars and other medals, including 3 x 1939-45 Star, one of which is privately named to ‘P/O T.S.South’, and another example having the sewn on (reproduction) Battle of Britain clasp, a France & Germany Star, Pacific Star, 1939-45 War Medal, Defence Medal, Atlantic Star with (reproduction) Air Crew Europe clasp, Italy Star, Africa Star with (reproduction) 8th Army clasp, another Africa Star with (reproduction) North Africa 1942-43 loose clasp, another Africa Star, and a Burma Star. 16 medals in total.

Condition: generally good to most. Some normal age and service wear, with some surface soiling, loose threads etc. The German collar tab is only a fragment, with its backing and padding absent. The Luftwaffe shoulder board would appear to have had a number or other piece of insignia once applied to one end, but this is now absent.
A selection of WW1, WW2, and later items. To include: documents relating to T/041366 Driver James Bull of 874 Company Royal Army Service Corps.

A selection of British Women’s Land Army apparel, including some original WW2 era pieces, together with some later re-enactment items. To include: a likely reproduction felt hat, fitted with a genuine WW2 era die stamped gilt metal and enamel badge - with hinged pin and C clasp to the reverse. Another loose WW2 era die stamped metal and enamel badge, with hinged pin and C clasp. Reproduction long socks for wear over the breeches. Reproduction brown leather belt. 2 modern black wool berets. A pair of good quality reproduction beige coloured corduroy breeches. An original WW2 ere WLA tie, with ‘Tootal Tie’ label. A WW2 era tan coloured over jacket, with faded broad arrow stamped issue label to the inside, and the words ‘Women’s Land Army’. A long khaki green undershirt (possibly a period piece) A reproduction green woollen sweater. 2 likely WW2 era collarless white shirts, one with ink stamped marks to the collar, which read ‘LA&S 15 1402 41543’. And a WLA armband, with embroidered 2 year service diamonds (this likely being a reproduction). It’s believed that whole ensemble has been previously used for re-enactment purposes, and could certainly be used again if desired. Condition: good to most pieces. The green undershirt has a small hole / tear to the right sleeve, plus some wear to the collar area. The tan overjacket has some rust coloured stain spotting to the front, and is missing one of its horn buttons. The felt hat has some small punched holes to the crown area, in groups of 5, which suggests that something has been attached previously. The original tie remains in good condition, as does the later armband. Both metal WLA badges show a little age wear, but remain in good condition. The socks, belt, and sweater remain in good condition. The cord breeches remain generally good, with just some light soiling to the nap of the cloth from wear. The 2 white shirts remain in good condition.
A WW1 medal pair, awarded to 2nd Lieutenant R. Coxon of the South Staffordshire Regiment. To include: the British War Medal, and the Victory Medal, both with their original ribbons.

Some normal age related toning to the medals, with just a little polishing to the high points of the design. Some very minor wear to the silk ribbons.
