Nice badge, that coat of arms is still the school's crest isn't it? (Back in the 1970's I used to regularly trek past the Perse on Hills Road, between the bar at Homerton College, the Greek takeaway on the bridge and some accomodation opposite).

When I first bought this badge, many years ago I wrote to the Perse School (no e-mails then) and they kindly sent me the history of this unit which I still have somewhere in my files.
