Card: “Wolsley Helmet Officers Pattern 1910-1914 (Col. C.W. Darling) worn with Tartan Pugaree and Cap Badge”;
(48th Buckle Badge – red background; Davidson tartan pugaree – all attached)

One of a complete collection of regimental headdress with the exception of the feather bonnet (present elsewhere in museum). The original Glengarry from 1892 is still standard to the present day only construction materials have changed. The Balmoral style headdress was introduced in 1914 to regimental service and only construction materials have changed.
