I've seen those on eBay but haven't actually bought any. :-)

My one complaint is that they have the phrase 'Lashings of ginger beer' - perpetuating the myth that this is an EB quote! :x
'Oh voice of Spring of Youth
hearts mad delight,
Sing on, sing on, and when the sun is gone
I'll warm me with your echoes
through the night.'

(E. Blyton, Sunday Times, 1951)

Are any of them official or is this seller breaking copyright law by using Blyton's signature etc for profit?

That looks like a very nice memorabilia, I have always wished to own one like that.
Great you have bought it! :D A pity the Famous Five club no longer exists.
Does anyone knows if there are any Famous five 1978 badges to sell. I think I saw them some years ago for sell, but I really can't remember.
