Guest Posted 19 July , 2010 Share Posted 19 July , 2010 Fantastic - 'Scotch' ones too, eh? And from Glasgow! Peter Scottish ones even. I hadn't realised they were collectable, so early. Cheers Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Doyle Posted 19 July , 2010 Share Posted 19 July , 2010 Yes, bear in mind the so-called 'hate belts' (belts with badges attached), the pictures of kids wearing badges, the use of sweetheart brooches, and the fact that they are miniature works of art, they were collected at the time.

7t2ndswinger Posted 19 July , 2010 Share Posted 19 July , 2010 I would image the non-silver badges were surplus items after demob rather than being specifically struck for the collectors market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
