Neat, my grandpa had a little cigar box of these guys, think he said they're from the 1930's.

My father was one of them, at the later part of the great war, joined in 1914 in "The Huntingdonshire Cyclists." - Then transfered to " The City of London Yeomanry" nicknamed "The Roughriders" finally being transfered to
"The Machine Gun Corps" in Egypt. He survived the war . Hutch.
