How can this be a repro? The seller states that it "Appears to be older than my other British/Canada badges". Too bad he already has a bid 'cause I wanted it!!!

Andy, yes yours is a good one but, a post-war one.The Essex Scottish amalgamated with the Kent Regiment to become the Essex and Kent Regt. in 1954.Still a nice one.
