Scarlet tunic and grenadier guards tunic

[Britian_Jacky]

Hello again guys, I have taken photos of my 1937 dated grenadier guards tunic and I have taken some photos of what I believe to be East Riding rifles tunic. I just wanted to confirm that both these tunics are period and authentic. Thank you for all info given.

I can't comment on the other tunic, but the guards tunic, which looks OK from the photos, is for the Coldstream Guards, not the Grenadiers.

Almost forgot; I have never heard of the "East Riding Riles". Certainly , not a Regular regimenr, perhaps a Territorial Battalion?
I would expect a Rifles unit to wear rifle green, not scarlet.

Yes Robert, it is Coldstream guards, my mistake. Anyways you are right about the rifles, it think it was called East Riding rifle volunteers. Not too sure. What regiment do you think it is?

Here are more photos of the Coldstream guards tunic

Just a quick check of my reference sources leads me to believe the Rifles were a Territorial battalion of the East Yorkshire Regt.
I will try to come up with more info.

What are you asking for it?
