For sale is a scarce antique enamelled badge for the LONDON HAMPSHIRE SOCIETY. The society was established in 1905 and existed into the 1950s, being a club for people from Hampshire and living in London. Many such clubs exusted in London and for compatriots living there.

This badge shows the old Hampshire coat-of-arms, the crown over a Hampshire rose surmounted by a cap. The wording COM SOUTHTON is an abbreviation for the County of Southampshire (Hampshire).
