Default 256 squadron painted Crest

Hi Everyone,

I recently acquired this painted crest as part of a lot of other pictures. In complete honesty this isn't my collecting field so I will be looking at finding a new home for this at some point.

From my initial research I believe this is a original design of the 256 squadron crest that was submitted to the Chester Herald and Inspector of Royal Airforce Badges in 1947. The final crest was ratified in 1948 and the final design is generally signed off by the monarch which this one isn't, which makes me think it was returned.

Does anyone have any more information on this as I think it's a bit usual.
