Default East Lancashire Anodised

Could I check people’s thoughts regarding this badge and the authenticity of the maker’s mark please?

I’ve been unable to find a photo of another anodised East Lancs badge to compare it to.

There are currently at least 6 on eBay by Smith & Wright if you search ‘East Lancashire Anodised‘ unless I’m missing something about it?

I’m no anognised ally collector but it looks fine to me.

Thanks Mike and Luke.

I wasn't 100% sure about the maker's mark being genuine and am really pleased that it is.

It has the softer more flexible S&W slider.

Thanks Mike. That certainly helps explain its malleability and was one of the factors that initially threw me.
