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.
