Default More Southern African badges

Hi All
After Craig did a thread with his fantastic display of Rhodie Corps badges, I thought I'd put on a couple of frames of badges as well. Here's a small collection of Rhodesian Air force and Cape Town Highlanders badges.
Not complete, but ok I think.
Cheers,
Alex

Hi Alex, very nice frames. I am glad I looked carefully. I have 1 of the Queens Guard badges, I never realized that there were 2. Regards Andrew

Default CTH badges

Hi Andrew
Ya, there are two. The cloth ones were the original ones from the Queen's visit, and the plastic ones were brought out some years later as replacements.
Cheers,
Alex

Hi Alex,

I have a CTH sweetheart brooch spare if you're interested? Didn't realise till after I found a CTH tie pin that I had two in my CTH collection...

Cheers,
Mike

Hi Alex,

I dont get involved with Rhodesian badges, (although there were some very nice ones,) but you have a very nice collection of CTH badges; I've got a looooong way to go!

regards,

Iain

Very nice....there is no room for any more in the CTH frame, so just pass them on, you know where I stay

Hi Mike
Thanks for the offer of the CTH sweetheart brooch, but I don`t really collect them.
Cheers,
Alex
