      Thank you, Donnie. :-) It's odd and frustrating that we have such a black hole of information on British cavalry standards from about 1700-1740, though.

      All the best,

      David.

    Both this and the previous set are lovely and to me just scream 'royal' due to all that red and gold:).

      We do know the standard for the Earl of Shrewsbury's regiment in the 1680s; they became Cadogan's in the WSS. I shall be doing that standard.

      Cheers,

      David.
