I saw this wood board full of old automobile association enamel car badges on top of a cart being brought out & I RAN over & asked the lady if I could please have that. She handed it to me & I went straight to the check out to get it paid for & in my car before coming back to look some more - I almost passed out when I saw the price: $4.99!</p><p><br /></p><p>I've looked most up (they have sold for $20 - $180; asking price on some are even more!), but there are a couple on there that I don't know where they are from - can anyone tell me where the badges in first couple of photos (with initials/letters but no name) are from?
