WW1 Westmorland & Cumberland Yeomanry Gilt & Enamel Sweetheart Brooch, PIN FITTINGS REMOVED.

A scarce original First World War 'Westmorland & Cumberland Yeomanry sweetheart brooch', the reverse with evidence of having had a pin shank and hook, but for some unseemly reason these having been removed many years ago, otherwise I would have classed this in very good condition.
Height 34mm.

This is the first part of a large collection of First World War period, rare and wonderful sweetheart brooches, all in superb condition but with their pin fittings removed. These came attached on what could possibly be classed as a retailer's sample display board.
