Another British Legion badge, any help please?
Hello All,
Any help with IDing the purpose of this badge would be most appreciated, please. Its 52 mm x 40 mm. I am thinking its a variation of the standard bearers badge, but could be wrong. It was sold as a name badge. Thanks in advance, Phil

Phil, This is a presentation plate. I have seen others that have been adapted to use on other things like the standard bearers flag sling(?) and having it engraved with the club/branch/etc name.

Compare it with a modern 'sling badge' and thats what it is!
http://www.poppyshop.org.uk/members-sling-badge.html The clue is the bolts fit into two of the adjustment holes on the sling! Edited to add - page may not show, as it is a members page! A gold coloured metal badge with Legion lion badge design and space for engraving, suitable for attaching to a Standard Bearer's sling. (Cost £9.99 plus postage) Last edited by Mike_2817; 27-03-14 at 10:49 PM. |
