Lot Essay

* Items included in Sets 1556-1602 'Famous Regiments of the British Army' series, cannot be positively identified without being found tied into their original box, as many variations occurred in the painting of facings on these figures and many of the regiments have similar facings. 648B and 652B fall into this category, with 652B being an officer common to several sets. 655B, which was part of the series, has been positively identified from the series as indicated.
