I am not a badge collector but was curious if anyone knew when the badge in the ebay link (below) was produced. Is it likely to have originated from 1955 or a later date?
Thanks

I have two of this badge and have been wondering the same thing. I've hundreds of badges from the 1950s to 1980s but have no idea how to value them, so I can't help on that score I'm afraid.

Yes I believe it is original, produced in 1955 to mark the first tournament. Not mega rare but only comes up so often.
