"Old Blue" cover for EU passport?

Can you get (and if so, where from?) a dark blue passport cover in the style of the "old blue" UK passport, but to take the new dark red EU/UK passport?

I would try your local market or eBay0

I've just found out why I can't find any. Evidently the UK Independence Party sold them, but have just been banned from doing so by the Lord Chamberlain, as they used the "lion & unicorn" royal coat of arms without permission. Fair enough, I suppose.
But, hang on a minute, what's on the front of the new "EU" passport (and therefore the readily available covers), if not the royal coat of arms?The acquisition of wealth is no longer the driving force in my life.0 -
Clearly the Passport Agency has permission to use the coat of arms whereas the UKIP doesn't.
I've a vague memory of seeing them for sale in airport shops though - maybe worth looking next time you go anywhere.0
