Rare George VI Burma Police Medal Awarded to William James Barron District Superintendent of Police, Awarded for Service During the Mandalay Riots of 1938, bronze medal complete with its original ribbon and housed in red leatherette Royal Mint case of issue. Medal is named in the correct style “WILLIAM JAMES BARRON DIST SUPT OF POLICE”. Remains in very good condition. A report on his service held at the British Library gives the following details, “William Barron served with the Indian (Imperial) Police Service. He joined the service in 1921, held a variety of posts and gained wide experience. An officer of great physical courage and determination. A keen outdoor man and a good shot, keen on all kinds of field sports.” The report continues with details given by another officer, “I came to Burma with Mr Barron in 1921 on the same ship. His temperament which was most pleasant and normal in 1921 (and later in 1926 when I met him at home on leave), came to have become somewhat bitter in the course of the years but this did not detract from his general all round ability which was of high order, although it discarded sometimes a certain amount of forbearance on the part of colleagues and superiors. By his subordinates Mr Barron was held in great respect and awe, no one took and liberties with him. Mr Barron served with me as District Superintendent of Police when I was Deputy Commissioner, Mandalay in 1938. I cannot speak to highly of the magnificent work he did in the riots. His transfer from Mandalay on Political grounds embittered Mr Barron greatly. I recommended him for the Kings Police Medal but eventually after a lapse of 3 years he got only the Burma Police Medal – another disappointment”. William James Barron of Kineraig Greville Park Avenue Ashtead Surrey died 20th August 1944 at University College Hospital, Grafton Way, London WC1. The Burma Police Medal was instituted in 1937 and abolished in 1948. The award was given to both Burmese and European recipients, it is believed only 32 of the approximate 140 issued were to Europeans such as William Barron.
Rare WW2 Merchant Navy SS Dover Hill Arctic Convoys OBE and Lloyds War Medal for Bravery at Sea Medal Group of Eight, group consists of The Most Excellent Order of the British Empire O.B.E (Civil) Officers 2nd type breast badge in silver gilt, 1939-45 star, Atlantic star, Africa star, Pacific star, Italy star, 1939-45 War medal and Lloyds War Medal for Bravery at Sea “CAPTAIN W. G. PERRIN, S.S. DOVER HILL. 4TH APRIL 1943”. The medals are mounted for wear and accompanied by Merchant Navy officers cap badge. Captain W G Perrin was awarded the O.B.E in the London Gazette 12th October 1943, “For services when the ship was bombed and damaged”. The Lloyds medal appeared in the Lloyd’s List and Shipping Gazette 5 September 1944, “Captain Wilfred Geoffrey Perrin, Master, Dover Hill. For dangerous work in hazardous circumstances. The S.S. Dover Hill, was a cargo vessel of 5,815 tons. She formed part of convoy JW. 53 bound for North Russia heavily laden with a cargo of fighter aircraft, tanks, lorries, guns and ammunition. The convoy comprised of 28 merchant vessels with an escort of three cruisers, one anti-aircraft cruiser, one escort carrier, 16 destroyers, two minesweepers, three corvettes and two trawlers. Such a heavily defended convoy reflected the importance of the cargo and the expectation of trouble from enemy attack”. The convoy set off on 15 February 1943, in a gale which developed into such a severe storm that six of the merchant ships were so damaged that they were forced to return to Iceland. The S.S. Dover Hill lost much of her deck cargo overboard, including oil drums and crated lorries, but managed to save the tanks and continue her difficult passage northwards. Despite a concerted attack by Ju-88 bombers a few days later the remaining 22 merchant ships of the convoy arrived at the Kola Inlet on 27 February. A few days later S.S. Dover Hill discharged her cargo at Murmansk, still being subjected to frequent attack from enemy bombers, and afterwards moved out to an anchorage in the Kola Inlet where the ships lay about a mile apart. The German front being only about ten miles away, these ships came under frequent low-level attack by Me. 109s and the D.E.M.S. gunners were kept very busy as they patiently awaited their escort home - indeed the gunners aboard S.S. Dover Hill successfully claimed one destroyed and one shared destroyed before the incident occurred whereby the names of several members of her crew appeared in the London Gazette. The ship’s Radio Officer David Craig, who related his experiences for the online BBC archive WW2 People’s War, “I feel that the story should be told why the names of these men should appear in the London Gazette. I write the story as I remember it but I write on behalf of the nineteen men, as we all worked together and none of us did anything different from anyone else. On Sunday, 4 April we were anchored in Misukovo Anchorage a few miles north of Murmansk and I was playing chess in the Officers’ Mess when Action Stations sounded and our guns opened up at the same time. I went through the pantry, looked out of the door, and saw two Ju. 88 bombers coming up from astern, high up. Our Bofors shells were bursting below them and when they turned away I assumed we had beaten them off and stepped out on deck. This was a foolish thing to do as, unknown to me the planes had released their bombs before turning away. Four bombs exploded close on the port side and one on the starboard side and I was blown off my feet. As I got up our gunlayer came down from one of the bridge oerlikons and pointed out a large round hole in the steel deck a few yards from where I had been standing. It was obvious that the sixth bomb had gone through the main and ‘tween decks into our coal bunkers and had not exploded. We informed the S.B.N.O, Murmansk of the situation and were advised that there were no British Bomb Disposal people in North Russia. We then realised that we would have to dig the bomb out ourselves in order to save our ship. The minesweeper H.M.S. Jason was ordered to anchor astern of us and to come alongside to render assistance if the bomb should explode, although I doubt if there would have been much to pick up. Incidentally, I did enjoy talking to the Jason by Aldis lamp during this time. You must understand that though the Dover Hill was only a battered old Merchantman she was our home and no German was going to make us leave her while she was still afloat. The Captain [Perrin] lined the whole crew up on the after deck and asked for volunteers, and 19 of us including our Captain formed our own Bomb Disposal Squad. We had no bomb disposal equipment, in fact we only had a few shovels borrowed from our stokehold and 19 stout hearts when we started digging back the coal, trying to find the bomb. The bunker was full of good British steaming coal which we were saving for the homeward run so we used a derrick to bring it up on deck, hoping to replace it when we got the bomb out. When the Russian authorities heard what we were doing, although they had many unexploded bombs to deal with in the town, they kindly offered to send one of their Bomb Disposal officers to remove the detonator if we could get the bomb up on deck. When we dug about ten feet down into the coal we found the tail fins and, by their size, decided our bomb must be a 1000lb one. Unfortunately the Germans also discovered what we were up to and came back and bombed us again, hoping to set off the bomb we were digging for. Between bomb explosions and the concussion of our own guns the coal used to fall back into where we were digging and things got difficult at times. We had to dig down approximately 22 feet before we got to the bomb, but after two days and two nights hard work we finally got it up on deck. I was standing beside the bomb with two of my fellow officers as our Russian friend started to unscrew the detonator when after a few turns it stuck. He then took a small hammer and a punch and tapped it to get it moving. I can honestly say that every time he hit it I could feel the hairs on the back of my neck standing against my duffle coat hood. After removing the detonator and primer we dumped the bomb into the Kola Inlet where it probably lies to this day. We then moved back to Murmansk for repairs. Of the 15 ships which had come to Murmansk in February, one had been sunk and four damaged. On 17 May, in company with three other ships we left the Kola Inlet and set out for the White Sea. We arrived in Economia on the North Dvina River where we stayed until 18 July when we moved to Molotovsk (Severodvinsk) and finally on 26 November, with eight other ships, some damaged, we set out for home. Since it was now dark for almost 24 hours each day and we could only do seven knots maximum speed we went north to the edge of the ice. Knowing that a Russian bound convoy was coming up to the south of us we expected the Germans to attack it and leave us alone. This in fact happened and we eventually arrived in London on 14 December 1943, in time to be home for Christmas”. After returning from North Russia the Dover Hill was taken over by the Ministry of War Transport and was sunk at Arromanches on 9 June 1944 along with other ships to form an artificial port for the invasion of Normandy.

Rare Oldenburg Dragoon Regiment Nr 19 Officers Pickelhaube Plate, fine untouched example of the helmet plate worn by the 19th Dragoon regiment.

Two small drill holes to each side where it has been mounted to a board at one time, possibly when taken as a souvenir. Good dark patina overall.
Third Reich SA Dress Dagger by Gebruder Heller Schmalkalden, superb untouched example of a SA dress dagger with good deep cherry wood grip having nickel silver eagle and enamel SA emblem inserted. Good condition top and lower mounts with the lower mount having no gau or district stamp, indicating very early issue. Housed in a good early anodised scabbard with the top mount having the original short pattern SA dagger hanger. Dagger retains a near mint condition blade with the “Alles fur Deutschland” motto and the rare makers mark of the anchor in circle of Gebruder Heller Schmalkalden. Blade retains much of the original polished finish and cross graining. Some very light stains / marks to the blade and some scratches to the anodised scabbard but very good example overall. Blade 22cms, overall 37cms.
Rare Personalised WW2 German Kriegsmarine Officers Dress Dagger, superb untouched example German naval officers dress dagger with its white ivorine grip having wire binding. Original officers dress portepee attached which has frayed and worn in places. Eagle top pommel and standard pattern cross guard with release button to the reverse. Housed in its hammered scabbard with two hanging rings. The blade on this dagger has no makers trademark but we believe it to have probably been made by WKC. The blade is etched with foliage and the Kiel naval monument, very similar to the WKC naval officers swords, but to the centre of the blade is a panel with the name “Otto Mehlan” in gothic script, this panel would have probably originally been blued but this has worn away. The reverse of the blade is etched with foliage and also a German battleship at sail. Now we are aware of some post war made blades which are similar in design to this, however we have never seen an example with a named panel to an officer and also this blade has not been over embellished with kriegsmarine emblems, signatures of Admiral Doenitz and U-Boats etc which most of these post war blades have. The blade does show some wear which is consistent with the exterior of the dagger. We strongly believe that this blade was purchased for a German naval officer probably when graduating from naval officers school. The blade measures 24 ½ cms, overall 42cms.
