I believe Ludlow used both wire c-catches as well as cut ‘sheet’ catches so there’s no hard and fast rule as to which type of catch a maker used over the period they were producing the badges.

That is FANTASTIC !!  Thanks for sharing !! Mark

I think you're right Ken. Thanks CAC, I agree. 

Thanks

I found a pair of the trousers in a trift store one time but they would not sell them because they didn't have a price tag.🙃

Kind of looks like the Penn State Fencibles full dress uniform, although that used a mounted shell jacket type with a similar adornment / trimming. I'd recommend contacting the NGP History Project, which has an outstanding Facebook site. I wish there were more state guard related historians that put the level of detail they do into their NG history.

Based on my Flight Surgeon wing I do not think all Firmin wings need to have a wire catch.    Remi

Hello SGM, Sorry for the delay of response. I didn't see your answer. Thanks for it ! Do you know what these generator was used for ? Bertrand

Last name looks like Kuester. Nice one Chris

The M109 was painted again, this time with Vallejo "Iraqui Sand". I´m happy with the result. Next steps are color washes and detail painting.
