Why do you say TIPTAFT never made them?

several reasons!
tiptaft made quality badges. i have never seen a 13th LHR badge that i would even suspect came out from tiptaft.
tiptaft more often than not (i know they produced unmarked badges) maker marked their badges. even if they marked 10% where are they?
im not saying they were not made in england, however i dont believe tiptaft made any

hi all
i have a few of these badges. none are mounted in my collection as im not 100% on them. ive just found this one that came in an old collection of badges i bought several months back.
from what i could tell, it was put together in the 1960s? this is only based on that there were no badges on the board post this date
what are your thoughts
bc

On page 36 of The Queenslander dated April 23, 1931, are photographs of the hat badge and a collar badge for 13 LH Regt AIF. It might be worth going to trove.nla.gov.au and having a look. Sorry, I don't collect this stuff and can't offer an opinion.
