We had all hands tonight! The rest of our risors for our cases were delivered today! We decided years ago to raise all of our cases around a foot and a half.

New in our Collection last year is this 1868 dated Mess Tin. Worn on the top of the Backpack usually worn with a black canvas cover. This item was issued on exercise and not held by the individual but by regimental stores. This pattern was worn from the early 1860s till the beginning of the Second World War.
