Who can help identify these badges ?


Top row left I think has the letters JP on it and the car's owner was indeed a JP.
The RAC and AA badges on the top row were the standard membership ones.
I cannot make out the top rightmost, though I fancy I can see a lion on the top, so maybe military ? (I think the owner had been in the RN if that helps)

The one in the middle just below the Viking Longship might I think be an RAC Club membership one, or possibly a later normal membership badge (too early for that ?)

Outboard of the RH foglight is a Veteran Motorist's badge, but I have no idea about the three between the foglights or the one outboard of the LH foglight.

The Tulip Rally plate is from the 1956 event.

At a quick glance, it's a RAC Motorsport Member badge immediately below the Viking.

Thanks, that's the correct name for what I was thinking. The owner did the RAC Rally back then, so not surprising.
