Looking

Its been a while since I have added to the blog, mainly because the collection isn't actively growing. I am looking at a few nibbles which, if successful, will make it to the blog. Beyond that the financial constraints and increasing pricetags on the rarer badges are precluding any serious activity on the badge front at the moment. A shame really as the collection is pretty sweet so far! Any tips on badges are more than welcome though... I will have to scour my pockets for change.

Skegness 1963

Continuing the run for Skegness is this nice rectangular pin depicting the jolly fisherman. Made by Reeves and Co of Birmingham.

Skegness 1962

Yes its true. I am NOT dead. Simply resting.

I am reaching a tricky stage in collection where I have picked up the common stuff and, bar the odd one or two, am now finding myself looking at pricier pieces. That isn’t likely to happen with my current income though.

Anyway here is a straggler from Skegness.

This one was made by W.Reeves of Birmingham and is stamped as such.
