5th King's Officer's PBP

A rare, silvered, pouch-belt plate for an officer of the 5th (territorial) battalion of The King's Regiment (Liverpool) with four screw fastenings.

Note: The reverse of the backplate bears the name of manufacturer Hobson & Sons of Lexington St, London. The screw posts are bent inwards a little, which makes it difficult to remove so I have not taken a photo of the back of the plate itself.

See plate 1, reference 23, in Peter Brydon's booklet on "Insignia of The King’s Liverpool Regiment Volunteers, Territorials and Cadets" (Second Revised and Extended Edition).
