    Hey fellas,
    I've searched for awhile now and can't find any sales of for sale. I'm interested in opinions or first hand knowledge on the pricing of a Boer War Canadian Stetson hat with GS cap badge. Anyone have one they can share some pics of?
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    Edit: No I don't own one and am not looking for a value to sell it. lol

    love that photo thanks for sharing, I find it interesting how hes got a pistol in one hand and a rifle in the other.. Don't see that everyday Value of a Boer War Stetson 1739809586 really shows a lot of detail hes even got his spurs on and everything!

    The Pistol and Rifle are most likely a Photographers props....... But the rest of the uniform is good.....

    Here is an RCR in a Halifax Photographers Shop and a 1st CMR taken in South Africa.......
