Default Wiltshire Regiment Anodised Cap Badge - AEA

Hi

I picked up this badge recently. Although it is featured in Chris Marsh's book as AAZ07, the badge I have differs to the one illustrated.
It has the metal hair pin slider as used by GROVE on other early Anodised badges. However, it has these distinctive "swept back" features to the scroll. It has definitely been manufactured this way and the scroll has not been bent back, although crease lines can be seen.

Has anyone else seen this before? As Wilts Regt ceased c.1959, when and by whom would this badge have been worn?

Thanks
Andy
