RAF PATHFINDER BADGE ?

Would like to know what members think of this badge ... good or not. It came out of a house clearance in Merseyside along with a lot of mixed old tat . Total wingspan is 71 mm, height 20 mm .

Unless something went wrong while editing the images they seem to be facing the wrong way?

It's a fair representation of a seagull I guess.

No good, looks like a souvenir of the seaside.

very amusing ! I see your point however after 65 years of living by the seaside I am sure I would have seen something similar ! :)

No, it is certainly not a PFF badge.

Thank you for that, but no I wouldnt say I had bought a bummer ...it was £1 ... so I would have been a fool to leave it there !

Can I ask if there is a specific wingspan length for a PFF eagle or does this vary ?
