DISPATCH RIDERS BADGE ON GREEN?
This Dispatch Riders badge appears to be on a green backing. Others I have seen have all been on a khaki backing. Is there any significance or am I seeing something that is not there!
Any help or ideas, greatly appreciated. Kind regards, Malcolm. |

Malcolm,
I have had them in various colours including dark blue. See Roys Album. The lighter coloured backgrounds are usually associated with South Africa but in the case of yours I dont think its one of those. Its probably as you say, just a makers variation. regards

Hi Malcolm,
Yes what Simon said. Nice example, one I don't think I have (will have to check) so if you ever part with it drop me a line. Cheers, Roy
