DSCF1005

A simple circular badge this one depicting a red rose in a yellow border. Simple but nice nonetheless. Reeves and Co. manufactured.

Filey 1949

DSCF1001 

Filey 1949 is another badge that makes great use of the frame breakout. It adds life to what is essentially a plain badge though I’m not sure about the subject matter! The rear is interesting in that it is also patterned and quite effectively too. Made by Birmingham Medal and Badge Co.

Second Week

DSCF1001 Pale blue and blue this time, this is what is described as the searchlight badge. Simple but the breakout beam makes the badge strangely effective. This one is suffering from a little corrosion but is still very nice. Made by Gaunt.
