Some SAP badges

5 Attachment(s)

Hi All
A couple of recent acquisitions. Not usually what I go for but couldn't resist...
An early Zuid Afrikaanse Politie cap badge, 1913-1926, slight variation to the ones shown in Owen.
A pair of KC collar badges, but I found them particularly interesting as they have a single clutch pin fastening. That would date them to the early '50s so they couldn't have been in use for long. Appreciate any additional info if anyone has any.
Cheers,
Alex

I particularly like the first example, if only it could talk!

Re. the collar badges with clutch pins... SAP NCO's and constables adopted collar badges in 1952 and wore these till replaced with the version without crown in 1957/58. These were very short lived badges.
