Guards Divisional patch
Hi all
I received this today. I ordered it as a "high quality replica" for use in a display. (Chances are I'll never procure a real one) I've never seen one in the flesh, actually, not a colour picture either, so can anyone tell me if this looks ok? Also, I see the seller has dubbed it "BRITISH WW1 GUARDS ARMOURED DIVISION DIVISIONAL SIGN", though I have no recollection of reading about a specific "Armoured Division" sign as opposed to the "regular" Divisional sign? Cheers Colin

Colin,
Your badge is a reasonably accurate replica of the badge worn by the Guards Division in WWI. It is nothing like the badge of the WW2 Guards Armoured Division a scan of which is attached. There is an example of the WW2 sign currently listed on ebay. Jon
