Canadian 3rd Infantry Division Cap Badges
I have had these for about 20 years. I don't think there is anything particularly special in the set but thought I would post them anyway. I believe they they are all pre-1953 (WW2?) but I am not an expert. They are all lugged.

Nice collection of Third Canadian Infantry Division cap badges. Worn from 1930s to 1950s.
Nothing scarce, but they were all fighting units and had a large rotation of soldiers. I like it since it tells a story. Phil

A nice group of badges. As Phil says, nothing scarce, but a couple are starting to work their way up. The North Nova Scotia Highlanders badge is a bit harder to find.

I wonder if the first pattern SDG badge (that shown was the 2nd, later version) isn't getting a little rare, too?

The first pattern badge is difficult to find. A collector would have to determine if they want one pattern or both. The St Andrews cross pattern was authorized in 1941 and I believe the badges were available at the time the SD & G's went overseas.
