They were on motorbikes with sidecars full of tools and sandwiches.
They were supposed to Salute you if you had one of those badges on your car.

I still have my AA box key ... but I haven't seen an AA box for quite a while.

giz? What is it? Sorry I''m portuguese.

Is is possible with the serie number of this badget to get some history about the serie 2a? It's a 2a of 1962 and the only owner was a university of agriculture in portugal. And I'm triyng to recover his history.

I have some photos of the "machine", latter if you wich I can put some for you all to see.

Thank you.
 
if you know the only previous owner why dint yer contact him for information, or has he corked it.
i don't think the badge number will help as they where issued ( note correct use of the issue word) to the people rather than with the vehicle. usually that person would be the owner but not in all cases.
 
The owner of the veicule was the school. The usual driver was the director, how in not in functions right now. The veicule was not in use for many years. Qnd the peoples at scholl right now those not show interest in help us.

When the veicule was sold the school told that they those not even know the meaning of the badget.

thanks for the help.
 
Legally the badge remained the property of the AA so should be returned if you ceased to be a member. The Serial number on the badge allowed the AA to keep track of who it had been issued to. It would not give any information about the vehical, and I doubt the AA have any record left of badge numbers anyway. These badges were replaced by unnumbered ones in the late 60s. I had a friend who's first job on leaving school was sending out new badges to those members who returned the old ones, which he just threw in a bin to go for scrap. He was nearly in tears 15 years later when we walked round Bueulie(?) Autojumble and saw how much they were being sold for!
