Hello,

Could someone please identify these 3 badges, and if possible, who wore them and when.

Unfortunately, I do not have pictures showing the back of the badges.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,

Invest

The badge with the motto "Labor Omnia Vincit" bears the coat of arms of the City of Bradford. I think it was used by a number of organisations including Bus and Tram companies in addition to uniformed council employees

Hi Invest,
ACER IN ARMIS lion badge is for 7th (Wellington West Coast Rifles) Regiment, worn in WW1.

The lion's head collar is attributed to the Essex Scottish / Essex and Kent Scottish Regiment.

Certainly worn as a collar badge by Bradford City Tramways crewmen.
