Default SAS wings

Greetings from Norway.
I wonder if anyone would be able/willing to verify/date or dismiss these wings? They were brought from the UK 30-35 years ago by my grandfather (who had nothing to do with the SAS). I think perhaps he thought they were pilots wings and bought them for his aviation-interested grandson The wings are paddded.

Thank you for the info. I am going to hold on to them, but it would be interesting to know how much these would be sold for normally.
