Default Warspite Sweetheart

Picked up this little cracker recently.

Since I believe the silver hallmark to be Birmingham 'V' (1920), it appears to have been manufactured in the very year my Granddad joined the 'Grand Old Lady'.

Thought it might be worth sharing.

Hi Peter,

Nice photograph - thanks for sharing it.

In the Empire to Commonwealth Project that I work on I'm currently researching/collecting photographs of sweetheart badges and would like to include that in the collection - would that be OK with ye?
