stephen p nunn Posted 28 October , 2022 Share Posted 28 October , 2022 A definite original. Apparently these were shaped by personnel using the end of a broomstick. Lots of repros around but this is a family piece and belonged to an RFC man in 37 HD Squadron at Stow Maries.. Regards. Stephen (Maldon). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEd Posted 28 October , 2022 Share Posted 28 October , 2022 One of the big giveaways with these that marks them out as a repro is the presence of a ‘Bridge’ between the top of the ‘f’ and the bottom of the crown. like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, so that makes yours a good one rather than a repro , if you see what I mean. lovely item, and lovely it’s accredited to an individual as well Edited 28 October , 2022 by MrEd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
