Very nice gilding still Ron. We should start a list of regimentally owned copies - that's five so far I think.

Steve, Good idea! I imagine Welby purchased it around the time of publication. So you have four signed copies?

No, I have three. The fourth is Penn Symons special copy, which incidentally went for £2,000 at Spinks last Wednesday. I have also remembered a sixth which is in the Prince Consort's Library in Aldershot donated by Colonel Glennie. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Steve, Yes, and Penn Symons liked to sign his collection. I've got two signed published pieces with his signature. Interested in the Welby? PM
