    No idea at all about this. I do not imagine a single apaulette is all that desirable.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    I never knew that epaulettes included indications of Right or Left.

    I've been looking for the manufacturer, but keep running into references to "Allen & Co." as a publisher. What is the street address on New Bond St.? I can see a 4 at the end of it.

    That rose - a Sheffield regiment, perhaps?

    The rose does look like the Yorkshire Rose emblem, what is in the centre of the button which looks to be surrounded by a wreath.?
    Could be from a commissionaires uniform.

    Thanks. Mr. Dempsey came up with the Yorkshire association-I had no clue about that until I stumbled on Andrew's site. He used to have tables at an annual antique arms show in the U.S. But stopped coming years ago.

    Well found. I doubt if my odd one is worth much, then.

    First time I've seen the underside of an epaulette. They are more robust than I imagined. Thanks.
