Getting back to the original thread. I have put these two badges for comparison. There are differences at the arrow heads and just below at the joining lines, one being voided, the other not. Gaylors book seems to show one version, whereas Kipling and King (fig 1919) seems to show the other. Obviously the lugs are not shown. So, the question remains. For me, the badge shown here with N/S lugs, is by far more inferior in definition, feel, and quality. The feet on the lugs are also off putting. Maybe both are fakes ? Any comments ?
