N.C.B Leather Belt

N.C.B Leather Belt.
These official N.C.B. belts were given out free from the stores when needed. This belt was my personal belt issued in 1977.

This was my belt from when I first started work at Rose Heyworth Colliery in 1977, it originally had the two small buckled straps for the self rescuer and battery lamp, riveted onto the belt though we would remove the straps and rivets as it was easier and more comfortable not to use them.

The N.C.B. logo (as seen above) is stamped into the belt.
