Thanks mate, It's probably one of my favourite items in my collection and the only piece from the 39th militia I own. During the war these would have hung in all the militia drill halls across the country... This may possibly be the only one that survived the war as I don't know of another one, the AWM doesn't have one in their collection and I have searched and asked a lot of advanced collectors but no one knows of another like it.

Cheers fella's I thought you might like it! Yeah the poster usually does live in a frame but since I am moving house I thought I would pull it out and take a picture before I packed it away.
I might even look into getting the poster restored and linen backed as it is a bit fragile and I have the missing piece from the bottom left corner which unfortunately got broken off in the post when I bought it
