Default Pair of Peggie's

Going through my cloth pieces I found these after being stored for a number of years. I have always felt they were OK but would like to hear any other thoughts.

thanks
Jack

Default Pegasus Formation Badges

Hello Jack,
Am obviously in a get educated mode. Besides lack of bleed through on the reverse and the dashed lines (fold marks) versus dots on the top edges, what other indicators have you observed?
Regards,

Thanks Jack, Had gotten this pair a number of years ago. At that time I had not been as diligent as today. However I am still learning as it never ends.

Any printed Pegasus with a white back should be avoided. They are always the classic light or pale blue

They lack details on the figures. The dots are too small.
See the photo for reference.

I remember these appearing mid1980`s with the usual bull s..t tale about been found in stores at an army tailors ......... Jack is completely right about the white back and these fakes have a certain ` stiff brittleness ` to the material bought a set my self hey ho !
