A rare and impressive Home Service tunic, as worn by the Drum Major of the Scots Guards when on parade.
The tunic comes complete with the extremely rare , correct pattern S.Gds. wings, all buttons , bullion collar thistles and the correct , 4 bar rank stripes on the lower right sleeve.
The tunic is excellent overall condition. The bullion shows only minor dulling around the collar and the red fabric remains good and bright throughout.One small dark mark from the sword belt to the front right skirt . Very small area of wear to the edge of the tassels on the wings photos show.
Internally, the tunic is fully lined.
A most impressive display item.
