Title 3rd Battalion Grenadier Guards sports vest badge
Nationality British
Period c 1920
Sold

This is the sports vest badge, which has loose poppers on the back for fitting to male popper studs. These do not appear on the market very frequently - possibly they were only worn by the sports teams of the battalion in question, namely the 3rd. The cipher indicates that this was from George V's reign.

Its condition is good, with a little age darkening to the red here and there, but basically still bright and clean.

...acquiring this bayonet has completely changed my way of thinking on collecting bayonets. I have become extremely fond of the bayonet... Thanking you once again for the very professional way in which you handled the money [going to the wrong account] problem.
