Default Granite Boot Co (on war service)

A much better attempt this time!

Upon reflection, this technique was probably used for small runs of badges and maybe involved something similar to a "transfer print". The making of a die to strike this badge was probably an unnecessary expense for the number that were to be produced.

I have at least two OWS badges where they have clearly used a "stock badge" and then hand-engraved the name of the company on it. One like this that comes to mind is "Tingey & Co"
