Lincolnshire, East Lancashire and Tie

[DDEV]

What do members think about these two badges?

I looked at many pictures of each on the world wide web to come up with some observations of my own.

The East Lancashire badge’s sphinx seems a little different than those I’ve viewed. Its tail seems smaller and the neck appears narrower.

With the Lincolnshire badge I’m always drawn to the ribs which don’t seem to quite the same on many badges and on the back the tabs which attach the scroll seem larger than others viewed.

While on the topic of sphinges (had to look that up) can anyone tell me about this tie by Eruex of London?
