Does anyone know where I might purchase replica vintage trumpet case badges? I’m specifically looking for a Buescher case badge.

This eBay seller says they had some Olds badges made up. It might be worth reaching out to them and asking what company did the work:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/334600626716?hash=item4de7c0621
Of course, those Olds badges are just painted on a flat piece of metal; finding a source that could stamp a raised pattern into a thin metal badge might be more difficult.

That's a good idea, I think I might try that. Thanks for the suggestion. I actually happen to have bought one of those Olds badges a few years back, do decorate the inside of my current case.
Come to think of it, maybe I could search for an old, damaged or unwanted case instead, and see if I can get the emblem from that.

Lol. Guess there’s no point in asking those guys.
