N.S.W. Association of Change Ringers, (c1940), hand made badge in silver (32x24mm), voided design featuring a swinging bell, with lapel lug on reverse and number 23. Extremely fine and rare.

This badge was produced in c1940 for the N.S.W. Association of Change Ringers. Approximately 40 badges were handmade by a Sydney jeweller. On 28 September 1978 this badge was given to Les Carlisle by Mr Ralph Joyner, a bell ringer at St Mark's Church Darling Point in Sydney, the church where Les and Margaret Carlisle were married in 1952. This association was renamed in 1962 along with the inclusion of ringers from other Australian states and New Zealand to form the Australian and New Zealand Association of Bellringers. The bellringers are responsible for the co-ordination of English-style 'full circle ringing' namely change ringing, and method ringing in bell towers with a peal of bells.
