ANODISED ROYAL ENGINEERS - TKS MAKERS MARK
Hi all
Attached (i hope) are photos of an Anodised Aluminium Corps of Royal Engineers cap badge, not at all unusual in itself but this one i found recently has the Toye Kenning and Spencer makers mark, TKS (reference Marsh 12.1 - TKS in an enclosed box). I have not seen this mark on this badge before and just wondered how common or not it is? Common or rare it will make a fine addition to my collection. Your comments would be most welcome Regards Steve |

My Anodised Aluminium badges also with the same mark (RE just added)
I have two gaps for badges that i do know exist with this mark (RHA & RRF) but if anyone knows of any others then i am keen to know. photos would be most appreciated. Regards Steve |

That mark was on the RLC badges when they 1st appeared so i assume it covers around 1990 onwards.
If i recall correctly,the Royal Irish with slider and Royal Irish with lugs both have this mark. |

Mike,
The one in my photo attached to post 2 is on a slider. I have seen the lugged version but i don't believe i have one in my collection Steve |

The TKS marked R Anglian is one of the ugliest royal Anglian badges out there. I dislike the way that the flat castle does not fit the star . Looks like something you got from a petrol station in the 70s

TKS is possibly Toye, Kenning & Spencer. Big makers of Masonic regalia and, presumably, also doing badges.....
