"Jeeves the Jewellers" of Waterloo, Liverpool were indeed the suppliers of these badges. They still exist although they are no longer based in Waterloo/Crosby. Jeeves Ltd., have never sold any of their merchandise on eBay. They supply to police forces/local authorities direct and do not sell to the public. Any surpluses of Lothian & Borders Police insignia (now obsolete) have come from members of the former force or from uniform surplus dealers who have bought obsolete stock from Police Scotland. As an aside, Jeeves do not manufacture badges (although their name is often seen on the reverse), they have these made by a third party. They then retail to local authorities/police either individually or fitted to leather wallets.
