This is FYI.

There is a sunbeam badge listed on ebay, the seller thinks its for a tiger.
Its a reproduction of the early SI to SIII bonnet badge, and clearly not
original.

Before people get gung ho and start bidding on it I thought I would bring
the
following to light.

1. It is available from at least S.S. for less then the starting bid.
2) It features an interesting defect in that it says "Rootes Croup"
3) Werent the originals somewhat better defined and clearer?

I purchased one of these from S.S. at one time, and didnt like the "Croup"
part, Rick promptly replaced it.
