Having served in 2ArmBgd I've always had an interest in the various Rhino badges, good or bad......but these on ebay No.150800157473 are the best yet!!

Words (almost) fail me! Who would believe these to be genuine?

Thought you'd like these Mike.....to be fair they do say they are newly manufactured and in plastic envelope!!
I do like the 'Nora Batty' legs!!

I do recall that when our comets were stenciled with the new charging Rhino in June 47 someone painted curly tails on some of them just before we left Italy!
First pic is of our 47 Rhino and the other is late 50's.
Third is better Rhino pic.
