VIDEO: York Boar Badge as worn by supports of R3

8-minute video with a close-up examination of the original badges the
king's supporters would have worn. Also some time with the artist
replicating the silver-and-gold-gild one for the Yorkshire Museum. Dated
July 2013, at the official YouTube channel of the Yorkshire Museum Trust.

Thank you Weds that was excellent. Incidentally years ago in an article either in the Ricardian Bulletin or in the Yorkshire Branch Magazine, which I thnk is called Blanc Sanglier, there was a short article saying that Jorvik, the Viking name for York, means Vale of the White Boar. So that is possibly how Richard choose his emblem.
