Looks good to me with the straight barrel possibly Great War vintage

Hi MH331, And thanks for your information and fast reply. I thought that it was possibly into war IE: 1930 To 1939? But it did look good to me although I was not 100% sure about it as I have only seen the World War II, version's of this "Tank Crew Arm Badge".

Thanks again, Mick

It looks good to me. There were broadly two slight variations of the WW1 cloth arm badge, one with a solid black gun barrel and one with the outline of the barrel traced in black thread.

Definitely right and early and without the ‘L’ on the sponson, not sure if the lack of the ‘L’ helps to date these.
