Here is something I picked up on ebay recently. I posted this at COW but thought some folks over here might be interested too. Here is the background I got from the seller:

"Hope you like the item i have had it for twenty years and it was the property of a major general D,Dunlop,who was commisioned in 1916 and retired in 1966,unfortunately i dont know any history about the item you have purchased,I was lucky enough to be able to purchase many items years ago,but it time for some of them to go."
