Yes, I can go another badge on my braces.  Leather ones don't abrade the bellows so much...

Trouble with the MAD theme is, if we make a sticker it'll cost me a fortune to put one on each of my cases and bags!

I don't know what a leather badge is either.
Leather badges are nice. Here's one I have from the Scarborough Fayre Morris festival last year. This one is oval, but they can be circular (or other shapes, I guess)

You can also see us wearing them  ;)

Prehaps a melodeon, but with MAD for the bellows?

Would the badge be a DG or BC box?  ;)

Since we have so much fun here dragging just about every topic well away from its original topic, it would be quite appropriate if we had a badge that was "something completely different" that only those who were a member would recognise.

I was keeping it in reserve as a witty riposte - to go with my cod-piece!

But if the weather is bad (at Whitby for example)  nobody will see it except for very close friends.

Perhaps a loincloth would offer a more 'gender neutral' choice of garment. For the modest, it could be worn over the clothing. Imagine the sight of a group of players at a festival in loincloths with MAD emblazoned on them!
 By the way, I can't help noticing a trend on this site to shrug off traditional decorum and identity... :o
