Arsenal badge

Post by brucers »

I have just been shown this badge by someone on another site. I have never seen this one and have questioned if it is real. Can anyone confirm it's validity as an original Dial Square (Arsenal) badge? From a quick general look online it seems to be something made up in more recent years. Over to.....

Never seen that before and the font looks too modern.... at least from the 1950s or 1960s?

Looks fake but not positive tbh....

Tend to agree with you but before I tear a plastic Chelski apart verbally I want to a double check.

Can't find that badge anywhere. Some early Dial Square and Royal Arsenal stuff here including badges....

Thanks for that. I have seen all those ones, even have the multi montage as my facebook background.

I have seen that badge ( or very similar ) used by one of the Arsenal supporters clubs, possibly in America

Will have a hunt around - pretty sure it’s not a genuine Dial Square badge

Cheers, only looking to make sure it is not one used by Arsenal in their heyday. Like you, I don't think it is.
