J.W. Tiptaft & Son Ltd operated in Birmingham from 1882 until the late 1930s. The company was founded by James Walter Tiptaft in 1882 and expanded to badge, medal, and trophy manufacturing when his son Norman joined as a partner in 1909. The business was eventually acquired and absorbed by S. Blanckensee & Son Ltd just before World War II.
