Thankfully this wasn't official, but if Lennie's fears came true it might have been:
On holiday in Devon many years ago, at some fair or boot sale, a bloke was selling embossed leather wrist straps. You could choose whatever words you wanted and he'd put them on. Our eldest wanted a red one and asked for the word Charlton to be put on it. While he was getting it done I got distracted only to return to find that he'd got what he wanted but with an additional picture of an eagle stamped on it at either end. I asked him what happened and he said that the bloke told him it looked too plain as it was and bunged the eagles on for decoration. I didn't have the time or the heart to have an argument, so I spent the rest of the that holiday figuring out how to cover up the offending eagles. In the end I decided that the best bet was to buy it off him and throw it in the bin.
