Only an Essex Police Traffic Warden cap badge. I don't get much in the way of spares nowadays, I used to. Badges just cost me a small fortune to buy.

The illustrated badge was used by the Fire Team at the Barbican Centre in the City of London. Don't think they exist anymore.

Hello Dave, that will make his day when he comes back online. A very rare badge?

Hi Phil,

I recall seeing it illustrated on a manufacturers sales list many years ago. It didn't rock my boat particularly so I passed on it, but the unusual design stuck in my mind. Sado that I am!

Cheers, Dave.

Dave, the sad thing is that I have been to the Barbican and seen that logo dozens of times and i didnt twig!!! I even have books and cd covers with it on.

Jerry, rather than pictures of it , can i just have your collection?

Phil

Phil,

I know what you mean. If I'd seen the logo on its own rather than on a badge it would not have registered. As for the badge. Other than the one I saw on the list many years ago, this is the only other one I've seen so I guess they are few and far between.

Dave.
