OTSA 100 Walker Wainwright Collection Part I
Lot 1490:
Britains Band of the Royal Marines
Tropical Service Dress, special commission by the Ministry of Defence (MOD) for display in the regiment’s recruiting office, 21 pieces, in an original Regiments of All Nations box, labeled MOD 50/19/1; Very good, box very good. This lot was acquired via a well known English auction house, where they were described as Britains "Specials", in many cases supplied through Gamages. There is no compelling evidence that Gamages ever produced such special orders. There is no doubt that they are one off special commissions, but the identity of the maker/ painter remains unconfirmed.
