    Default Safe badges

    Hi all

    Hope you like these plates, these form a small part of our collection. some are common, however those that couldn't be polished have been restored sympathetically using colours that would have been close to original.

    What are your comments on colouring?

    Hi demosafeman

    Thanks for your comments.

    Don't suppose that you have any pics on safes/badges to show.

    I will get around to putting another selection on the site during the next few weeks.

    Regards
    Russell

    Hi Russell

    Hope all is well

    Things are a bit quite here, so i thought i would try and get a swap going as i may have a Withy Grove plate you may not have. (photo attached)

    If you interested come back me.

    Look forward to your reply
