Default New items bought today

Hiya guy's
I bought these today, and would like your input please, don't hold back though, as i've bought them as repros, but 2 of them look original. ??? I think

If these images are too small, look at the album for larger pictures, cheers.

Yes Andy, It looks like repos to me as well.
Defo the East Surrey badge
The RIR badge has 2 lugs N & S where as I've seen originals with 3 lugs, 1N & 2S (EW)
The SR's is most probably a repo, but I'll have to await others verdicts on that. =-((
But I stepped outside of my comfort zone of range of badges anyway, and it was a good, cheap learning curve for both me and my wife.

I'll ensure I get my homework in on time next time around, and try and ask you guy's some questions on these subjects in future, with pictures.
Ken
