Hi, I have a fairly good library of books on formation signs, shoulder titles and trf's

Men at arms British battle insignia 1914-1918
Men at arms British battle insignia 1939-1945
Howard Cole Formation badges of world war two
Brian Davis British army uniforms and insignia of world war two
Audax Badge backings and special embellishments of the British army
Marc Sherriff British army unit identification badges vol 2&3
Robin Hodges British army badges

however there is an area around the late 40s-60s that I have no book for, can anyone suggest a suitable title please. regards John

Does not show actual badges but again good to identify British army post war arm badges and unit identification.

Depending on budget you can't go past this one for the period you're asking about.
