Title Royal Marines cotton blazer insignia
Nationality British
Period c 1970s
Price £3.00

This would have been (and still could be) worn on a civilian blazer along with flat gilt Royal Marines buttons - perhaps at veterans' reunions etc.

It is made of embroidered cotton with a nylon mesh backing. Its condition is reasonably clean and it doesn't look as though it has ever been mounted on a blazer.

Thanks for the good and quick service! I tell other world war 2 collectors to buy at your shop!

Hanger arrived safe and sound 11.30ish today. Very pleased, it's as expected. Your excellent pics make all the difference in terms of confident buying over the net. As a matter of interest, the frog, which as you said is very a/f, is, as you thought, 'spot on'. On closer inspection it is a mk.1 Naval Frog, designated 'for cutlasses'. Date seems around 1860ish give or take.

By the way, I think your site is very user friendly. Seems to work much better than many and up to date, a rarity!!!
