13th Australian Light Horse

[mojob123]

Just a quick query. A friend was given this 13th ALH badge for Christmas by his wife who liked the look of it, and knowing my interest (in British badges!), asked me if it was genuine. Talk about a poison chalice! Not least as it's a badge I mostly know nothing about. I've read through everything I can find on here and appreciate there is some contention over what constitutes an original of a heavily copied badge. So just a quick one - does this one have any chance as a theatre made badge or is it an easily identified fake? Sorry, these are the only pics he sent me. TIA Mike

Hi Mike. Many thanks for reply! Nice to know it at least has a chance. I shall pass the info on to my friend, and otherwise keep digging for further confirmation. All the best, Mike
