Tailors badge ?
I have had this badge for a number of years but I have never been able to positively ID it, can any one help please?
I was told it was a Guards Division 'Tailors Trade badge' over to you.... |

A representation of the drummer's badge by the look of it (although yes, it does look rather like a cotton reel)..

It is supposed to be a drummer's arm badge as mentioned, but it looks as if it is unfinished with missing details.

I have one the same design but with a shaped backing.
Also one of a similar basic design. Marc

Thankyou for all the above comments, I am not convinced that it is an unfinished 'Drummers' badge due to its size although I can see the similarities. For me the jury is still out on this one.
Thanks for looking. |

100% Drummers badge.
No such thing as a Tailors badge. regards

Surprisingly I do not have a picture of every variation of every trade badge ever worn.
However what I do have is 50 years of knowledge gained by collecting such badges and more importantly by researching such badges, having amassed a library as big as my collection. So when I say what I say I do not do so glibbly but with a firm knowledge of such matters. You must believe what you think even if it flies in the face of the advice that several knowledgable people on here have told you. regards

It is unfinished with those missing details. It has also never had the backing material cut to shape.
