Herefordshire Automobile Club.
A very rare membership badge with intaglio written 'Federated Motor Clubs' on the outer edge, and a three-colour centre with three lions passant guardant representing the armorial of the county, and the words Herefordshire A.C. around the circumference. The nickel-plated badge numbered 196 recto, and 'Registered Fattiorini Sons Ltd. Bradford' stamped at the base. Original mounting thread and retaining nuts. In excellent condition. The Herefordshire Automobile Club was founded in 1903 and disbanded in December 1931. The club organised local events, to include a 'Small Car Trial' and other rallies. The Hereford Reference library holds the governing paperwork, a club minute book, and other material.
