Royal Horse Artillery Edward 8th
Hi,
Just seen one of these sell on evilBay for over a hundred pounds. However, it was in white metal and not gilding metal as stated in Kipling & King, ref 1932. The badge on evilBay looked correct and maker marked Firmin. Are Kipling & King incorrect or did this white metal badge exist along with the gilding metal version. Have I missed a rare badge? Thanks Andy |

Hi,
Found the thread by 54bty http://www.britishbadgeforum.com/for...tillery&page=2 It is very thorough and at no stage mentions a Gm Edward VIII badge (KK1932). Additionally it does not mention the Wm EIIR badge (KK1934). So am I to assume Kipling & King is incorrect? Thanks |

There is a white metal private purchase badge, unfortunately I do not have any dates of when it came into use. It is still being worn by some today. Maybe I should add it on the list. Marc
