About this objectBaldrick used in performances by the Offley Morris men. The design of the Morris baldrick is said to originate in the baldric, a belt worn over the shoulder to carry a weapon. Morris Men now wear their baldrick decorative purposes. The baldrick often contains the specific Morris group's emblem as well as their team colours. In the case of the Offley Morris Men this is the Offa's Penny and the colours blue and black with white rosette around the Offa's Penny.
The Offley Morris Men were founded in 1955 and performed locally and internationally. The group gave their farewell tour in 2016.
The Baldrick is part of the Morris Man outfit set 2022.51 - 2022.56
