Default Tayforth Universities A/A Badge

Hi Guys,

Does anyone have a Tayforth Universities badge that is not voided but has in place of the two voids between the sword and the scroll the design of a flower?

This badge maybe found in Kipling and King as item K&K 2493.

Regards

Chris

Hi Bill,

This is the common one most of us have in our collections. The one I'm looking for is very similar but the two large voids left and right of the sword and 'X' and the wreath are both filled in with a flat background containing a flower.

Regards

Chris

Thanks Mike,

If you can please check this out.

It is in K+K but I've been a bit disappointed for one reason or another re: A/A entries in the book and need to investigate this particular badge further.

Regards

Chris
