11 Small Victorian Scraps, Soldiers


Item number: 7267
Date: circa 1880–1920
Price: NZ$22.00

For the Victorian scrapbook – little scraps depicting soldiers of the period, circa 1880. They have been cut out of a scrapbook, and still have the paper on the back – I’m sure they could be soaked clean ready to enter another book. Otherwise, they would look really good set out and framed in a shallow shadow box.
They each measure around 3.2 cm high. Beautifully detailed, and in very good condition. Only one has any damage (see photo), and this is on top of the scrap, so may be able to be cleaned off.
