Wound Badge Evolution

[JapanX]

Blue enamel on the general badge of the association.

How this is happend I wonder

[fukuoka]

As stated in the item description (and also in my history of the War Wound Association), blue enamel signifies an executive officer (幹部・役員章 kanbu yakuinshou) in the association.

It’s been a while since anyone has posted on this thread.  Are there any new round badge acquisitions?  

[JapanX]

Yep, a lot of water under the bridge

You will find recent finds here https://asiamedals.info/forums/wound-badges.483/ including the earliest japanese wound badge (although not official) known for today (issued in 1909).

Hello, gentlemеn!

Here come three another afterwar Association Merit Badges. The two of them are with blue enamel, one - green enamel. All the badges are of the same size.

The blue enamel Merit badges are: "53 years Visit of The Empereur and The Empress" and  "63 уеаrs Anniversary Ceremony". For both - "Toumei" mark on the reverse, round pin hook, white metal (not aluminium).

The green enamel Merit badge is: «48 years Visit of The Empereur and The Empress». No "Toumei" mark. The hook for pin is different, more simple. The colour of metal (not aluminium) is "warm" - like silver with patina, not that much "cold-white" as the blue enamel badges are.

Nice badges.

Yes, Okayama branch of association.

Door plaque of team leader.

Probably self-made.

I hope, one more old good badge and silver colour kanji on the lid will be interesting.

Thanks Graham.  In retrospect I should have started a new thread with this request.  I posted it here as it is being sold as a WWII Wound Badge.
