Alternative histories

Our history does not always come from the written word. Oral testimony along with pictures and everyday objects all have a place in helping unlock the past. Here are a collection of political badges. Some I wore, some were left by friends and some I cannot remember how they came to me. Each has a story behind it, a campaign which in some cases ended in success and others in failure.
Badges from the 1960s to the late '80s
