It appears identical to the item in lot 123 of Bonhams auction of August 2004 ( Grace Gibson collection) which is with some other Training Reserve items and I think this is a Training Reserve item and a scarce one.
P.B.

Was it a common practise to paint rather than embroider such titles during WWI?

Fairly common, MH331 has several in this great album.

Thanks, I didn't know that painted titles were worn at that time.
