HJ 1938 tinnie

[HJ31*]

Here is my metal badge stamped with the HJ which would correspond to a sports day from 1938. Is this the correct designation?

Is it worn on the left pocket of the shirt on the axis or on the right or left of the axis?

From reviewing photos, it would be worn slightly below and to the right of the HJ membership pin (left of the membership pin if looking at the shirt. There are a lot of great photos on this forum when you can see placement of event badges in relation to the membership pin.

As per Tieste (current reference books), there are four recognized variants of this event badge-

1 - round stamped tin
2 - shield-shaped stamped tin (1st photo above)
3 - tan/brown colored pressed paper
4 - red (reddish brown) colored pressed paper

I have posted a photo of the four variants.
