Tiny Silver and Enamel Badges

[Rob Bulloch]

I was given this little box containing some very small badges. There is a jewellers name and address on the box G.A. Barker Military Jeweller 85 High St Hythe. I think they are all Canadian, (Vancouver Irish, the 2nd Armoured Car Regiment and the PPCLI) with the exception of the naval bullion badge, I am not sure what the naval badge is? Would I be correct in assuming the little badges would be for sweetheart pins?

Aye Rob

There is also a Governor General's Foot Guards, a Princess Patricia's Light Infantry, Seaforth Highlanders of Canada and what I think is the (Canadian) Corps of Military Staff Clerks. I suspect they are Second World War. The jeweller's is of course the Hythe in Kent (- near Folkestone as opposed to the one in Hampshire) - as it says 'also at Sandling Camp'.

I suspect the 'naval' badge is Yachting related - can you make out letters - possible RY first two and one of the Royal, Yacht Clubs.

They look more like association badges to me

First of all my apologies for my tardiness in getting back to this thread Staffsyeoman, I still cant decipher the letters on the bullion badge, my first thought was a naval volunteers badge but the second letter could well be Y. Thanks for your input.

Dan you could be right but! they are very tiny as you can see by the penny.

Thanks Rob.
