I posted these pictures on General Matte Discussion a while ago not knowing where to post it. I thought I would move it here hoping it will get more attention.
I know these soldiers are Johillco Guards and Lifeguards. Are these all part of the Household Guards in winter uniforms? The following from Wikipedia."The King's Guard (called the Queen's Guard when the reigning monarch is female) are sentry postings at Buckingham Palace and St James's Palace, organised by the British Army's Household Division. The Household Division also mounts sentry postings at Horse Guards, known as the King's Life Guard (called the Queen's Life Guard when the monarch is female)".
I'm hoping someone can tell me how old they are, I'm assuming post-war but that's a 22 year period and I'm hoping to narrow it down. Hopefully the price on the box will help and the box itself. There are a few pieces of the string inside that was used to tie the figures to the box.
Thanks, Tom
