Smile A couple of anodised badges

A couple of anodised aluminium badges that I found whilst going through my collection which I had forgotten about.The first is the 'common' Int Corps KC and the second a rather strange Royal Anglian Regiment with the colours the other way ( gold star).I thought they may be of interest.fred

Agree with Griff,
That's an odd way round for the Anglian badge, in the back of my mind I seem to remember this coming up before but cannot remember what the answer was, had a quick look back at some old posts but no luck, I'll have a better look later, I'm sure there was a reason??

I think I picked them both up the Royal Anglian at the old Saturday Military Market 'underneath the arches' at Charing Cross. I was a student at the time ( mid 80's) so would have paid very little for them!

Two interesting badges and thanks for sharing. If you ever decide to sell the R Anglian badge, I'd be most interested.

Thanks again for showing.

Best regards

William

Hello William,

Do you know something we don't regards the Royal Anglian? I'm still sure I've seen something on the reversed type before ?? Any ideas ?

Gerard

Hi Gerard,

Regret to report that no, I know nothing at all about the reversed colour R Anglians; apologies if I gave out the wrong impression!

Best regards

William
