Default Eden & Co.

Hi Jon

Back in 2014 I did a bit of digging with regards to Indian badge makers, and posted up the results to this thread. I even managed to find a specific trade directory entry for Eden & Co. from 1940-41, which is here, and who, if I recall correctly, were in Aligarh in the United Provinces, now Uttar Pradesh. Like Simon says, the “43” is most likely 1943, and so the year of manufacture.

Best regards

Martin
