Default Interesting Recent Purchase Airline Badges etc.

Picked these up quite recently, most unidentified, but they appear to be mainly Airlines, some Scandinavian. I`m thinking possibly manufacturers samples, as they are mounted onto cards and dated on the backs. Any suggestions would be great.

You certainly have what appear to be several police badges in amongst that lot.

Top of the second page has a cap badge and probably rank badge from Persia/Iran (Shah-era).

The four similar winged badges at the bottom of the same page are worn on the chest by different canton police in Switzerland.

Thanks for all of your comments, seems like a bit of a mixed bag, Swiss police, would never have identified those... As they are quite varied and unworn, maybe they were samples ?
