Coat of arms sweetheart ww1 what town?
Bought this described as Arras sweetheart but does not look like it to me looking on line. Gone through a few towns without success. Will keep trying but somebody may recognise the cost of arms??
Thanks John |

The coat of arms is that of Arras, or least as found on the couple of brooches I have.
Edit - but you knew that by the time I posted. |

I used to have a badge picked up in Carnaby Street when I was a kid (was the shop "I Was Kaiser Bill's Batman" or summit like that) - "Wounded On The Arras".
Well, it seemed quite funny when I was a sprog. Remember the song by Whistling Jack Smith? Or maybe your grandad does? The shop as I remember it, though I was far younger than the people shown in it: https://youtu.be/vdm0FVlcmRw?si=Th3Iqc3Xie6G-Cmo |
