Marshall Britannia Emblem

[Burning Oil]

Looking to buy a Marshall Britannia Emblem to complete the restoration of my Marshall Roller, does anyone have one for sale or know of any likely sources?

What kind of Marshall roller?

I got a copy from Dave Ragsdale for my S type. It wasn't really shaped well enough to fit the headstock, but some gentle persuasion and some heat got it fairly close.

Here is a picture of one, I am not sure if its made of brass, probably cast iron.

A good point 8_10, the difference is quite noticable. I have been told that the type shown your photo is made in cast iron, not sure if I will ever find one as the pictured example is the only one ive ever seen.
Thanks for any leads on this, if I could find one to make a mould casting a replacement will be easy.

Just for the record the chap who owns the example in the picture wont help,

Would you like me to engage the services of some of the local youths?

Was there one on the other ex Bomford Marshall?
