Keith,

Many thanks for your quick reply, nice to put a manufacturer's name to a particular badge.

Regards Rob

Good evening Rob,

May I add that these 23H other ranks pattern head dress badges were worn with a (snooker table) green felt backing mostly found cut like a grave stone with a rounded top.

All good wishes,

Peter
