Huntingdonshire Cyclist Bat
Goodmorning, Could this well worn and clearly often polished badge be an original? Thanking you in advance for any and all opinions expressed.

Despite what appears to be a broken back leg it looks ok

Yes there is indeed a small break there unfortunately but if the conclusion is that it is good then I will take that in stride. Thanks for your response!

I believe the same badge was worn by Huntingdonshire Home Guard - is there a way to distinguish WW1 cyclist from WW2 Home Guard? or was it simply the same badge?

Mike, I have always understood that the difference was the location of the attachment of the slider. Cyclist attached to the head and HG attached to the body. Do not know if this is absolute or not.
