Default RCAF Wings

Can anyone tell me if this is genuine or a repro?
It is heavily padded.

Thanks Mike, can it be dated? And what about value?
Regards Ron.

World War two issue for sure. I'd expect to pay minimum 175 for this pattern, but that would be on a good day.....usually one sees them listed for a little bit more

Are you talking pounds or dollars? Because I've seen a few at the Ottawa show for less, although still pricey.

Dollars. I know some RCAF pilot wings go for less, but it's all dependent on pattern and condition. This pattern is not as easily found
