Title Local Defence Volunteers brassard
Nationality British
Period c 1940
Sold

This is a rather scruffy example of a brassard for the unit which preceded the Home Guard. By comparison to the Home Guard example, this is a comparatively scarce piece. It would have been worn on the left sleeve, like the Home Guard example on my site.

It is rather dirty and shows signs of rather more service use than the Home Guard brassard. The edges are a little frayed in places and there is a small tear to one edge.

If you want to comment on this item—re quality, age, etc—please email me.

The tipstaff arrived today and it's beautiful. I couldn't be more pleased. You're a pleasure to deal with.

I should have written sooner, but I did want to let you know that the photos arrived safely and are absolutely fabulous. I could not be happier with them.

Thanks for the excellent service and great photos. I hope we have occasion to do business together again.
