A J Allen Maker Marked Badges
I have this Welsh Reg’t ORs example which appears right in itself, other than a strange colour difference between the crown & title scroll, but it does have the mm referred to on the shank. Any thoughts.
I would add that the colour of the metal for the shank is what you’d expect to find on older badges. |

Hi Kevin,
Not one of the manufacturers listed in the 1914-1919 Board of Trade Labour Gazette.... http://www.britishbadgeforum.com/for...ghlight=Ticker so with the SH spelling I suspected either pre WW1 or 1920-22. However, this website states the company was established in 1941 https://www.duedil.com/company/gb/00...ingham-limited the address is identical to Alan’s London Gazette link. If that’s correct then an unusual spelling for that period? Cheers, Luke Last edited by Luke H; 22-05-18 at 08:05 PM. Reason: Grammar |

Alan,
Thanks for the information on the liquidation. I was just rather curious about a mm ORs badge. I have Lambourne examples & the Gaunt plaque type but have never come across this name for an ORs badge on anything Welsh related. I had forgotten about it to be honest, just came across when I was going through this lot for the pre 1920 pattern stuff. Hwyl, Kevin |

Hi Luke,
Thank you. I should have thought of carrying out the company check myself. Can’t be 1898 pattern then, rather I suspect a later copy which would explain the difference in colour of the crown & title scroll and the fact that I couldn’t match the pattern of the crown with any other examples I have. Coffion gorau, Kevin |
