DESCRIPTION

A rare chance to own a named WW1 British army officer's sword, scabbard, belts and photo. I bought these items with an old label (now lost) which said simply "Lt. Bolton". The photo of this officer shows his regiment badges; identify these and you can probably trace who Lt. Bolton actually was (his full name, what happened to him, etc.).

Nicely etched 32.75 inch blade in generally very good order and firm in the hilt. The hilt guard with some plating bubbles as you would expect. The fishskin grip with twisted wire bindings in very good order. Nice leather field service scabbard. Belts as seen in the ohoto of the officer. Total weight 1.823 Kg which means with packing will be above 2 Kg.

Please contact me for extra / full sized photos if required. Item ref no: 91 / Box114-1m

I only use the local post office to send items; if you want a courier such as UPS, Fedex or DHL, YOU will have to organize and pay for it (I am happy to accommodate their collection). I am quoting using the cheapest express option which is registered and provides some tracking. Estimated delivery times are Europe (7 to 10 days), USA / Canada / Australasia (2 weeks). The price includes a specialist boz. The shipping cost does NOT include insurance; if you want this PLEASE ASK BEFORE BIDDING; all risk is with the buyer (please note: I have never had a problem with damaged / lost parcels yet, except to Russia). There are faster delivery options available including an express service; please let me know if you want details of such options.

I sometimes use little white styrofoam chips and other props to balance items so I can photograph them; so if you see a little white thing or something else, that is what it is. I often use composite photos (photos which show the same item several times from different sides / angles); so if you see one photo which appears to suggest it is for more than one item, it is not (unless stated otherwise).

PayPal Buyers: You are the importer and assume all risk a) regarding Customs (after the item has cleared my local Customs and left the country) and b) for package / content loss or damage (unless insurance is paid for). You give up your right to make a PayPal buyer guarantee claim a) for non-delivery (unless you specify and pay extra for advised delivery, where your signature is provided back / available online to me as proof of delivery, plus specify and pay for insurance) and / or b) where the item is seized / delayed / confiscated at your Customs control.

Items are sold as is; assume nothing. Please ask for photos / condition statements as required.
