Stanley & Aylward mark
An auction for an extremely rare CEF artillery badge is currently running on ebay. Featuring the King's County PEI Seige Artillery Draft, the badge has tangs which are marked Stanley & Aylward Toronto. (The authenticity of the badge is not at question.) Does anyone else have any tangs marked to Stanley & Aylward?

Bill,
You say the authenticity of the badge is not in question. I would have reservations as she has recently advertised several fake CFA numbered battery badges for sale and it has been commented so on this forum. Is it not possible that the fakers are moving a step up and adding 'rare' makers marks to tangs? regards |
Hello Simon, There is nothing on this badge that raises my suspicions. The overlay appears to be correct, and there are not any tell-tale signs on the reverse.

Bill,
I guess I am ultra suspicious over this series of CFA badges, there are so many fakes. I have not seen this maker, but I have a CANADA banner CFA badge with "R.J. INGLIS LIMITED" stamped into the top tang. regards |
Understood Simon. With all the crap out there, one has to be very careful. Especially with pricey badges.
Thanks for the note on the CFA badge. There are three tangs on that example? |

Bill,
I have a 69th Battery with the tang marked Stanley & Aylward Toronto. |
Thanks Gary. Same type as the PEI badge.

Rob, clarification, the Stanley & Aylward mark is on the wheel? Does the mark include Toronto?
|
That would be correct!
