Does anybody know or have an image of the DLI bandsmans pouch badge ? Im looking for something from the 50s onwards,so possibly 4Btn LI as well.

Lovely Mark,is it on screw posts ? Is it cap badge or beret badge size ? Do you have an idea of date ?
The one in the linked image is dated 1964 so 4th Btn LI,it appears as if it could be cap badge sized.

Hi Mike, I do not have the badge at hand but it is a very large badge much bigger than cap badge. In solid brass with 3 lugs for fixing to pouch. I also have one to the 7th btn and I haven't seen one to 4th...they don't come up for sale very often. Not sure of date of them ...

Thanks,sounds like they are almost glengarry sized badges then

Have only seen them with screw posts to the battalions noted and Band pouch badges of other regiments are generally variants on the regimental pattern badge.

Good to have a pic, always more to learn, cheers Dean
