Thanks Guys,
Paddy, looking at the slider on your East Yorkshire Regiment badge show what looks very much like a London Badge and Button Co slider with a Timing mark added. The badge body though to be fair to LB&B does not look like their work and I think someone has taken a plain LB&B skider, marked it probably with the original Timings punch and added it to a dodgy body made via open casting. I would of course need to see this in the hand to be sure one way or the other.
The provence of where you got it from does not leave me with confidence as to authenticity either.
Mate, I'll leave this one off for now.
Regards
Chris
