Couple More Bands I Need Help to ID (1 Viewer)

[captainsimos]

Hoping this finds everyone well and starting to return to a normal life. I have attached two more photos of bands in the large collection I am helping to sort through. I think the first one is Royal Army Medical Corp and the 2nd one is French circa 1900's.They are both solid and appear to have been cast from Britians. As always your help is deeply appreciated. Stay Safe and Well

Hello Captainsismos,
I would like to suggest that the first pic is not a RAMC band. The RAMC had brass buttons, not silver, and the trim was crimson. The trousers also do not look correct for the British Army.
However, I hope there is someone out there with an old Britain's catalogue, if that is the manufacturer, who will give you the necessary information.
Good Luck,
Blackbob.

I don't know the makers, but set 1 has the colors and look of an Imperial German band c1900,going on the blue coats with red ping and grey trousers with red stripe and they are all wearing a Pickelhaube hat.

This is my German band, by Tradition of London

The 2nd set is French, c 1900.

I have one set of Britains recasts with look similar but are marching with rifles.

Both pictures are only samples of the uniforms so you know what they are.

Thanks, I think you are right on both sets. I found the same soldiers on the Traditions site and in another book I have. Thanks for the help!
