Hi Andrew,

I have a 24mm anodised example in my collection but not a 20mm. Is there a difference to the design between them?

David.

Hi David, I don’t think there would be, but I would like to find out if a 20mm anodised type was ever made. After maybe 35 years of buying and collecting Norfolk badges and buttons, I found a button I didn’t have, a brass paston school 20 mm in dia. So was just wondering if it ever got made, as the larger 25 mm type can be found in both brass and anodised, with about five different back makers marks.

Hi Andrew

I’ve never seen one as you know it’s been discussed that it’s possible it never was worn on the cadet uniform but was a school blazer button and ditto the GT Yarmouth button. I think another oddity is the KORR ER11 buttons in 19mm anodised and 25mm brass which I don’t have now. Well done on finding one anyway.
