Britains 00261 Centenary series, City Imperial Volunteers Set in Fitted Box, 54m


    The Britains Lead Figure Limited Sets Range 54mm approx.


After the outbreak of the Second Boer War in October 1899, volunteer corps were established in most counties of the United Kingdom to provide officers and men for service in S.A. 

A corps of Imperial volunteers to be raised and equipped by the City of London was authorized by Royal Warrant dated 24 December 1899 with the name City of London Imperial Volunteers. The corps included an infantry division, a mounted infantry division, and a field battery (artillery) division. The infantry and mounted infantry divisions were composed of about 1,400 men recruited mainly from existing volunteer regiments in London and Middlesex.

The artillery division was composed of about 150 men recruited from the Honourable Artillery Co, and the City of London Artillery All the officers and men received the Freedom of the City of London before departure.

The Honourable Artillery Co Boxed set can also be found in my shop.


This is a smart Britains No 00261 , in the Centenary series,  X10 City Imperial Volunteers Set in Fitted Box, in 54mm

The figures look to be in action poses, mostly charging the enemy with fixed bayonettes, and includes an Officer with Sword, Bugler, and various Riflemen charging.  

Another seller has same set same condition up at £149??,  my one will start competitively , and is posted within the UK.

The figures are very well detailed , and is typical; of Britains, and now quite scarce to get, especially in this new condition

Figures in superb overall condition,with no obvious flaws seen.

Red Box with only light shopwear  to it , but in good condition still.

The Brown mailer outer in which it will be posted has some water damage at one end only.  (Its inner box not marked so its done its job well.  ) 
The outer has been cellotaped closed at the water-marked end only to prevent damage. See last pic. 

 Other end is ok and use that end to remove contents. Price reduced for the flaw. .
