Description
Round cream-coloured badge with brown text, "People's Palace Glasgow Green".
This badge was created for the People's Palace, a museum situated in Glasgow Green (one of the city's oldest public parks). The 'people's palace' idea was inspired by writers such as John Ruskin, William Morris and Annie Besant. It was opened in 1898 as a cultural centre for the people of Glasgow.
