Can anyone offer any info about this badge?

[Disco Deejay]

My grandmother was given this 'Rangers Football Club Member' blazer badge in the 60's by someone called Johnny MacDonald, who was "high up in Rangers".

I've searched through google and haven't been able to find anything similar, suggesting it might be quite rare. Can anyone offer any info, or a possible value, as I have told my daughter that it's going to be hers.

Close up...

I believe it is a badge that the member's section got

Not sure on this one but in the days before modern day hospitality there was a members section in the main stand (section L maybe) sat adjacent to and partly behind the visiting section of the directors box. Had it's own lounge but with fairly basic facilities.

Might be related to that.

 

[Coop1872]

Anyone else not seeing the images?

 

[hms]

The detail in that is fantastic

 

[Hap Hapablap]

Nice bit of memorabilia

Absolutely

 

[1288Bear]

I was a member of that

Was in there for a few seasons myself late 70's.
An old uncle had a couple of tickets and although he was no longer able to attend was reluctant to give up the tickets so I got the benefit for a few years .

Due to the fact I was, a member at the age of 22 and an old friend of mine had it on his Blazer, had it for years, possibly from the early sixties
Is that ok Watson

Cheers. That's why I took the close-up pic. I didn't think the first pic did it justice.

My gran was given it round about the early/mid 60's, which would tie in with your estimation.

Love how you start it and I'm the villain
I am a sick man trying to recover

Why doesn't it say, "Aye Ready"?

Surprised it took 24 posts for someone to bring that up.

 

[Clicker]

There were a few household names in there back in the day

No harm in naming them after all these years, I’m thinking people like Lex McLean?

I'll stop.

With added benefit of being allowed to park your car in The Albion!

 

[russianboatcommander]

My Dad had a Zippo with that badge on it, Ill see if I can find it and post a picture, I dont know anything about it though.

Someone's neatly picked off the "Aye" stitching. Someone will definitely have seen all the Members with "Aye Ready" badges, but never seen a photo of one.

You did kinda state the obvious Robert.

the Members is still where it always was. It was called The Waddle Suite for many years

 

[BlueFox]

Fantastic badge. I was given something similar by my grandfather in late 60s early 70s. I pestered my mum to stich it on to my school blazer but it caused such a fuss at dear old Simshill Primary that it was taken off me and I got sent home with a note at the end of the day telling my mum to remove it.

I had forgotten all about it until I saw your pic and sadly, have no idea where it ended up.

If you give it out you need to be prepared to take it back and after me being low profile for a couple of months

 

[Professor Yaffle]

Very nice that is.

 

[Ticketybloo]

Love to help but not got a Scooby.
No change there i hear you say.
All i can say is that is Sheer CLASS.

 

[1964Bear]

I believe it is a badge that the member's section got

Have you got the same badge

 

[Robert Marshall]

Have you got the same badge

No they stopped handing them out in 1968 or thereabouts, I never had a ticket until 1977 I think
