These are MY badges – I know that there are millions of others out there, but I personally own all of these. The vast majority of these badges are official and are marked as such. I don’t usually make a point of buying unofficial badges unless they are celebrating a particularly important match although you will see that I do have one or two made for League games.
The reference numbers (e.g. AFBC Ref: HUD34) are from the Association of Football Badge Collectors catalogue.
Huddersfield Town Supporters & Patrons Club badges
All of these are official badges
- ‘Moscow Branch’ badges were available in various colours, but only 20 of each were made
Special Celebratory Badges
Official

- The White Rose Club Hospitality badges were also for Match Day Sponsors (with thanks to Sam Horsman at HTAFC)

General badges, quite possibly in date order …
The 1950s and 1960s
- The Davie badge is almost certainly unofficial and possibly home-made
- The 1960s enamel badge is my very own and I have had it since 1968
The 1970s
- 1970-1971 small badge – is it by Reeves? It is not stamped and I’m not convinced that this is genuine. I think that this is far more likely to be a modern (c2011) product as I don’t remember seeing these smaller versions although the large ones were certainly around back then – I had one!
- The unofficial c1971 tin and Tudor Crisps badges must be about this date as Town were in the top division then and were more likely to have this kind of thing produced

A = Official early 1980s (AFBC Ref: HUD5)
B = Official (AFBC Ref: HUD9) It really is this small!
C, D and E = I am honestly unsure about these; I think that thtey are all unofficial and could possibly be even later than the 1980s
F = Official 1988-90
G = Unofficial? 1988-90 – a strange one; it’s exactly the same as the previous badge except that it has blue sleeves – Town have never played in all-blue sleeves which leads me to question its validity.
H = Probably official; I can only presume that this badge was produced to mark the ‘Walk Around the Pitch’ fund-raiser of 1984. In addition, this badge is shown in much-reduced size; it’s actually 7cm in diameter!
I = Official (AFBC Ref: HUD4)
J & K = Probably unofficial
L = Official 1989-90 season
